Thank you, Dana, for sharing. When you can find an app that automates certain areas of
your business, I consider that a blessing, don’t you. Especially like the
point about the app not allowing you to forget essential areas, as well as
being able to set priority tasks.

I use Facebook for 2 reasons: groups and pages. If you want exposure, get involved in large groups and post often. Groups are a great way to leverage exposure and build relationships. And business pages help to build authority, if you post to them regularly.

Facebook is under tremendous pressure to produce earnings, and for that reason I am…[Read more]

Dana, thank you for this post. Without it, I wouldn’t have thought to look at the Quora tutorial. Now it’s on my “must do” list!

Sean says…Information is getting to the place where it is free on the internet, you can find nearly anything on the internet for free if you look long enough, but transformation is not.

The money is in helping people transform their lives.

The real value is in changing people’s lives.

best,

Well, major thanks to you and to Sean for the suggestion. It goes right along with many of Sean’s teachings, making it doubly useful to anyone following his coaching.

They got caught lying over a lot of their numbers too. So now I guess people see less of what people were actually seeing less of…

Bruce, I think you are on track here. I also think we often neglect the goose that lays the golden eggs, in this case us, ourselves.

If we want to perform our best, be it physically or creatively we must take care of ourselves physically and emotionally.

I am wearing tracker watches and bands now to find some areas to improve. I didn’t think I…[Read more]

It was me, Dana.

I sent it to Sean for one of his clients, and he asked me to post it.

There’s a glitch in that part of the forum which prevented my name from being displayed.

Glad you found the article to be helpful.

Hi Robert,

Anything techy is a challenge for me, so my go-to source for how to do anything like this is YouTube.

As with any source, you do have to rummage around a bit to find what you want, but you can be sure that it’s there if you’re willing to look.

What you say, Robert, is absolutely true, not that it wouldn’t be. LOL

It’s only when you spend time in other countries, especially in their homes, that you realize how much less everyone else has.

And this is another place where the 80/20 Principle applies.

You’ll use 20% of your stuff 80% of the time. In this case, figuring out which 20% will…[Read more]

Well, Scott, this is much less of a resolution and more of a determination.

I’ve gradually realized over the past few months that I need to create more mental space.

It’s not so much that I’m running from pillar to post and back again as the fact that I couldn’t get on top of my schedule.

You may have read elsewhere that the thing I need to do…[Read more]

It’s amazing how little we need to live, both in income and possessions.

I had to learn this the hard way. I went from living in a 2800 sq ft Italian palace to a small hotel room (6 months) to a 8′ x 35′ trailer (> 4 years). Any day, I could be moving into a small and old one bedroom duplex. It seems surreal that I’m actually going to live in a…[Read more]

Share it with someone who’s wants to know.

When I move, and that should be soon, I’m expecting to get a high speed connection; and that’s when I’ll reinstall the app and go for the showcase.

Right now, on a good day, I get a download speed of 5-6 MBps. Upload is less than 1 MB.

Although I’ve never used FB ads, I’d like to suggest that they are a waste of money.

If you haven’t heard, FB has changed its policies. Fewer ads will be shown and more friends’ feeds will appear instead.

So whatever exposure you got before has just fallen for the same price. In other words, you’re spending more in order to get less.

I don’t use ads anywhere, but I’ll pass along some advice I heard elsewhere.

Don’t buy any ads until you’re making a living.

In other words, don’t buy advertising until your business is profitable to the extent that it supports you.

When it is, then you can invest in a marketing budget.

I’m pretty much with Scott on this.

There have been many times when I’ve planned a week. Usually, by Tuesday, something has happened to change that.

Now I have a pretty good idea of what I want to accomplish in my head, and all I can do is see how the day goes.

That may sound incredibly lackadaisical, but it beats being frustrated all the time…[Read more]

I’ve used a small Windows program – Quick To-Do Pro – for years. Was going to post the URL, but it is “not reachable,” so suspect it is no longer available. But there are probably newer, even better apps today. The reason I’ve stuck with this is because I can put in a recurring task, note its priority level and which project it’s assigned to, give…[Read more]
