I often see people compare careers by some sort of value system. They’ll say something like “people who are protecting this country should be paid more than a guy catching a football.”

As I said last week, I’m changing the name of this podcast and expanding its focus to include everybody who is struggling to achieve their own self-actualization.

The next schedule came out and I was scheduled to work a 10 hour shift in the day and then come back in 7 hours and work 8 hours overnight that same night. Now, for whatever reason, that I like will never understand, 3rd shift of one day is actually as the next day. So, it shows up as my working the next day and I thought perhaps my boss didn’t realize he already had me working that day.

So, I was not really looking forward to taking a job because I really want to be involved in what I do. Live at 100%. Work at 100%. And most of the jobs available really don’t want people that involved. If they did, they would work harder to get and keep them.

I wanted to restate something I’ve touched on in the past, but bears repetition. You may be like me in a couple ways. One way is that you have SO many ideas… that you don’t know where to start.

Often times these people would be trying to self-educate, which is a wonderful thing, and they would watch videos from other systems. Ask advice from other leaders. And my sister would carefully explain that mixing systems is not a good idea. Pick a system… follow it.

Let’s say you have a great idea for something. A service, message or product. And you believe that this idea has monetary value. That people would pay for it. AND… that you could spend your life doing it… whatever it s.. and make a living with it.

Start with one thing. If you’re like me you’ve got dozens and dozens of awesome cool ideas. But you can’t run with all of them at the same time. Pick one, go for it and then when it’s solid, go grab another one.

I want to tell you a story about a failure of mine with a client.

It was sort of a mutual failure… of each other.

I was hired as mostly virtual assistant to help a realtor with their social media …. or more precisely, to help them build their online platform.

Maybe you want to put your poetry on shareable images. Whether you want or need a website, or a social media platform or learn how to put text on your own images or royalty free images and share them with the world, I support you. And I can help you.
