I’ve Been a Busy Beaver!

Over the last few weeks I have been really busy applying for jobs and updating my social networking profiles. I have procrastinated about doing that for months. It feels good to actually have the profiles up to date.

I have found enough work to keep me busy daily. What a blessing! I am blogging about politics for Truth Daily. I have several private clients I am blogging and writing articles for, and I have created a new blog called It’s Not a Crime to Be Poor in America. I have also claimed my town in Texas, Waxahachie, on OurTown. Com. I am in the process of setting that up.

I wanted to share another site I signed up for, for you writers out there. It’s called Reptile and it’s in beta. You submit articles to the site and publishers offer to buy the articles. The transactions are strictly between you and the buyer. It looks very promising. You get a free 30 day trial, no credit card required, and after that, if you like it, it cost $10 a month. That sounds pretty reasonable to me.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday. The Emmy’s are on tonight, and the Cowboy’s also play. Love it.

Making Your Own Rules…My Mantra, I Suppose

Reading this wonderful post at Mashable this morning made me smile big. I have always pretty much lived by my own rules. Now saying this is not bragging, that’s for sure! Frank Sinatra is really one of the few people who got away with doing things, “My Way!” People, especially family and friends, get highly upset when you don’t follow the status quo. Don’t rock the boat, you hear, or at least I did. Thank God I wouldn’t listen. Like Thoreau mused, “I have taken the road less traveled, and that has made all the difference.”

But living life on my own terms has certainly carried a high price tag. However, I can say without hesitation that I am happy the majority of the time. If people are honest, you won’t find many who feel that way.

Make sure to read the post in the link above. It will remind you why you are an entrepreneur or self employed, which most of the people I know who read this blog are; either freelance writers or bloggers, or Internet Marketers.

Making your own rules, or at least not following the advice of the masses, is the only real way to remain true to yourself. If you trust your own good judgment, and know without doubt you are doing the right thing, in the end will only bring success. Stand tall, be proud. Confidence is the  most attractive feature you can possess.

(Oh yeah!) I have bought the domain for my business and life coaching site. Yee haw!) I will not share the link until I get it purty. :)
