Variety Instead of Self-Glory
Last week, my dear friend Tess reminded me that not everyone can follow when I talk about installing operating systems on a laptop or computer. I should be sticking with my goal to finish my aloe-vera-and-handy-herbs.com site since that will bring an income. Touche! I do need to be reminded sometimes that not every reader gets much out of my techie talk. Even if you didn’t understand all that, I hope you got the clear impression that it was a sweet victory for me to accomplish my goal.
I do have a regular work pace, and it would be boring to you if I repeated each week the hours I’ve spent on maintaining my sites, or those of my clients; or all the things I’m learning as I work on that new SBI site. I’m still doing all that too, but I have, in the last few weeks, given up about three mornings a week to go to my Azaleas Virtual Assistants office, and get those computers lined up so that I can earnestly recruit the students for my business. I’m hoping I can run a free workshop one Saturday - maybe in July - and use it to show people what they would learn if they sign up for the four month course.
Each week, I try to pick out one highlight for me, out of my varied work to share with you. It gives those friends who want to know what I’m up to, a sense of what is keeping me busy. I do realize that some weeks it will whiz past you like a bullet not meant for you. Don’t let it bother you. Just skim over it regularly, for the times when there will be something that does catch your fancy.
Hey, ideally, I’d love to brag here each week on how many copies of my book have sold, and how well my sites are doing, but then to translate one of my Gr’ma’s proverbs, “Self-glory stinks,” so that might not be very interesting either on a regular basis.
Guess you can be grateful that I’m a multi-faceted person and can give you variety, eh?
(Incidentally, I get to do some interesting things for clients sometimes, but I hesitate to share those items as they aren’t really mine to talk about).
