Monday - Motivation

Ahhh yes, Motivation Monday... I thought it was Inspiration Monday therefore thought I knew what I was going to write about.  Oh, who the hell cares, I didn't really have a topic anyway.  I do feel pretty good this morning.  And it still is morning.  It's only 9 am and I am actually out of bed and doing something.  What's my motivation?   I don't know!  I even made a list of schtuff I want to get done today.  My grandma called yesterday and said I probably won't be able to find a 'real' job until Obama is out of office, so I have plenty of time for that...lmao

I was going to write something about making mistakes, but I don't really remember... so instead I will leave you with this:  if you think of something important that you want to do or need to remember.... write it down.  Until next time............

It's About Time

Today is Friday and I forget what I am "supposed" to blog about today.  Once you miss one day, it gets easier and easier to miss more and more days blogging.  I just missed eleven days.  It's kind of like exercise until you just skip it entirely.  So, since I forgot what I am writing about, I will write whatever I want.  After all, it is my blog.

“You can’t take it with you” and “Only the good die young” are two quotes that come to mind when I think of death, but the topic hasn’t really come to mind very often until recently.  I, personally do not have a whole lot of experience losing someone very close to me, but in the past few days, it seems many people I know have been suffering losses and it’s been happening right after the brand new year too.

It really makes you think.  You think what you could possibly do to help ease the other person’s pain.  It may make you think of a loss that you have suffered.  But, for me, most of all it makes me think about the relationships I have.  What would I do differently if I knew it was someone’s last day on earth?  And how do I know that it isn’t?  What would I do differently if I knew it was my last day on earth?  All of these are good questions to consider when deciding how you want to live the rest of your life.

Bloggetty Blah Blog

Well I missed inspiration Monday and almost missed motivation Tuesday.  I am not particularly inspired or motivated the past couple days.  However, I did manage to get a website up and I am technically ready to work.  My website can be seen at http://www.kimkingonline.com/.

Figuring all this social media and online stuff out is a ton of work and I don't have it worked out at all yet, but I know it's the way to go and it's going to be invaluable to my business once I get it 'there'.  I kind of follow a few other people and even their various online activities are confusing.  One place takes you someplace else and so on.  One thing I am trying to avoid is any confusion, linking or connection between my personal blog (this) and my facebook account with my business and somehow facebook already has that connection?

I have suffered a setback since I got my domain name, because now I have to make a new logo, new email address etc.... and this will change everything I have done with my business cards, letterhead, flyer, website, favicon, business facebook account and I have to change the email in google analytics etc...  I am going to work away on this today, so wish me luck.  Hopefully I can get back on track and have some fantastic news to share with you tomorrow.  TTL

Sunday - My Journal

Ahhh, Sunday... my journal... this post should be an easy one.  This day was really good.  I talked to my grandma, did some grocery shopping, talked to my mom about my business, website and getting my real estate license.  Everything is good.

Saturday - Starting Over

I am supposed to blog about starting over today, so here it is... a quote:

"Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending." ~Carl Bard

I am not in a good mood.  I am tired and don't feel like doing anything.  I still don't have a job and all the self-help and inspirational/motivational quotes just aren't doing a thing for me right now... but at least I posted this blog, right?  ;-p

Friday - New Business Blog

Well, since it's Friday, I am scheduled to talk about my new business.  I printed business cards and have flyers posted two places in town.  I am not exactly setting the world on fire... nor do I yet have a paying job, but that's ok.  My next step will be to choose the domain name for my website and get that developed.  I should have an exciting new update for you by next Friday!

In the meantime I wrote two more articles: http://www.helium.com/knowledge/324618-relationship-history-of-brooke-shields and http://www.helium.com/knowledge/227935-dog-breed-facts-lapland-spitz.  They are both online now at Helium.com and soon to be published on Yahoo Associated Content.  They are not fabulous, but I need practice researching and writing and this is helping me to do that as well as showing my versatility as far as subject matter.

I am also working on inspirational cards to sell, looking for a REAL job and really, really close to taking classes to get a NV real estate license.

Get some structure

So, we're five days into this new year, and I have been working on stuff, but not really committing to or accomplishing anything.  I do have a tentative way to organize this so I can start blogging every day again, but this is not etched in stone... nothing ever really is with me.  But, here is the plan for my blogs anyway:  Monday - Motivation, Tuesday - Inspiration, Wednesday - Health, Thursday - Happiness, Friday - my new business ventures, Saturday - Starting Over and Sunday - My Journal.

I will start this perhaps tomorrow or whenever I decide to start all my other New Year changes or life changes or whatever.  I DID quit my Facebook games like I said I was going to and that is going just fine.  I also made a decision on my business cards and printed both back and fronts.  While it seems like I have not accomplished anything, I actually did, but things are just not moving as fast as I would like them to go.  I have to work when the mood strikes and I am still looking for a real job.

New Year - New Blog Header

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!  So far it seems like this is going to be a really, really good year for me.  2009 was the worst year of my life, with 2010 following it up in a close second.  I have high hopes for 2011.
For 2011, I updated my blog header and it more closely reflects that the blog will be about Motivation, Inspiration, Health, Happiness, my new business ventures, Organizing, Starting Over and My Journal rather than, just being about my business.

Oh yea, and this post is also going to be short... just so I can get it done.  I don't remember where I read this, but this is a tip that I am using to get me through today anyway.  This falls under the happiness catagory:

I have to try to look at my current difficulties as being "only temporary".  Whatever I was reading said that feeling stuck is what causes most of the misery.  What in your life could benefit from re-framing it as being only temporary?  A job you don't like?  A problem with someone in your life?

Have a great New Year, morning, day, afternoon, night and I will TTL.
