2015 is fast upon us!
And that means, of course….
New Ear Resolutions!!
Now, there are two types of resolutions:
- Personal
- Business
Okay okay, lots more of course, but still.
I will focus upon Internet marketing for this post.
With no more further ado, let’s pounce upon:
Personal Sanity:
Resolution #1.) Sleep. Thou shalt NOT pull 34 consecutive all nighters in a row!
Your health requires an adequate amount of sleep. If you lack that, you operate from an extremely non-optimal position and your productivity gets small than an ant’s eyeball. Take it from me, I’ve lived this.
Resolution #2.) Doesn’t have to be uninterrupted sleep; consider naps!
While uninterrupted sleep is peachy, perhaps you’re the kind of person who feels refreshed at 3-4 hours at a clip. That’s okay!
Resolution #3.) Thou shalt eat *smart*
You don’t have to shun the Food of the Gods for all times (ie, chocolate, cake, chips and the like) but yep – eat to give your body energy as well. Take your vitamins and power up the engine that produces you income!
Resolution #4.) Thou shalt exercise
The more you sit at a computer and imitate a sleepy potato, the more weight you’ll put on, the more poundage your skeletal frame will have to carry, and the less optimal you will be for hanging around with (family, kids, friends, etc.). I don’t care if your exercise is walking from one end of your house to another or if you eat CrossFit for breakfast…. do *something*.
Resolution #5.) Thou shalt LISTEN before SPEAKING
A great beauty of this world is we all have our own opinions…. and IF we choose to listen (notice that ‘choose’ there folks) before we ignite Operation Put Foot In Mouth And Chew, chances are, our business will grow.
Resolution #6.) Thou shalt express gratitude when required
The plain fact is, you didn’t get where you are by your efforts only…. there were people in your life who believed in you and helped you when you were down. So… when goodness happens… publicly thank those who helped you out.
Resolution #7.) Thou shalt pick others up when they are down
By your very presence on this planet…. you possess the ability to touch a life with goodness. If you see someone hurting…. reach out! Let them know you’re thinking of them. Encourage them! Be the light that shines in the darkness for them.
It’s one of the very best gifts you can give.
Stay tuned for Part 2!
Grow strong,
Barbara Ling
