Etsy or Shopify

-

 Here is a huge part of my problems, in almost anything, I'm always rethinking my choices. I had made a decision months ago to reopen my Shopify store come January 1st, but I was just reading a random comment on Facebook and it made me rethink my decision. No!!! I'm reopening my storefront. It may not happen on Jan 1st, but I'm going to try like h*ll to make sure it does. Okay, that is settled, now it's time to move on. 

Yesterday I took the whole day off. I did not think about my store all day. I read. I napped. I watched TV. I napped. I did pour some dominoes because I got black resin and I really wanted to try them. But otherwise, I did nothing related to my business and it felt good. I feel like I'm mentally ready to tackle some stuff today. 

Today is my first CEO meeting. I need to figure out what exactly I want to accomplish this week and develop a plan to go about it. I'm thinking of having CEO meetings once a week for now. I have a new planner that I want to take time and work on at least once a week. I used to do the Passion Planner monthly recap and I really liked it. It is so easy to forget what you've done and accomplished if you don't take a minute and reflect on the past. This new planner has weekly reflections, which I think will be even better, and I want to align my planner sessions with my CEO meetings. Face it, the part of my life that needs to be managed and planned is the business part. I go to school and I'm there at work. I do need to plan what I'm doing there, but not to the extent that I need to plan the business side. By the time I get home, I'm usually pretty tired and have limited time left in my day. So I need a good business plan to make sure I stay on top of the things I want to accomplish. So today will be all about planning. 

I need to make sure I schedule in my workouts too. I have been doing my workouts and stretches every day and it's feeling really, really good. I need to work on my steps. 

Okay, I guess it's time to get this CEO stuff started.

There are many ways to measure success,

and today I found yet another one. The Great Aloha Run this morning was just awesome. I didn't break any records, it was not my best time by far, but I think this was one of my best races ever. After getting up at 4 a.m., driving to the finish line, catching a bus to the start, standing in line for the port-a-potties(more on this later), I still found myself with over 45 mins before the race started. So I found a place to sit and people watched for 1/2 an hour - that is always fun. Finally, at 6:45 we headed out to the start. One of the things the Great Aloha Run does is they have the Sounds of Freedom. These are military units from all over the island that run in formation singing cadence the whole way. They line up on the side of the road and they have a silent start 8 minutes before the race starts. It's always a special sight to see them go. I'm a flag waving fool and when I see our military I just get all gushy. I feel so proud to live in a country where young...

My blog is great!!!

Look to the left there. My blog has been rated by blogged.com as Great!!! I scored 8.5 out of 10. Woo Hoo!!! I don't normally get excited over things like this, but I'm on a mission to create great blogs and this is just a little validation. So for some reason I was incredibly busy last night and stayed up way past my bedtime. As a result I didn't get up this morning. Well, that and the fact that is was freaking cold. We are in this spring weather cycle where it is warm and beautiful during the day, and cold, cold, cold at night. Makes for good sleeping but hard getting out of bed. Fe-Lady is raising funds for a really, really good cause. Go here and help her out why don'tcha. In my humble opinion there is not enough we can do to help out our American Heroes. So go, give, it'll feel good...... That's it for now. I need to get some work done.

Colloidal Silver

-
colloidal silver is very fine particles that are suspended in liquid, usually water. This apparently has antimicrobial properties and has been used externally to treat wounds and burns to prevent infection. Working in the lab we get lots of nasty, nasty burns. You ain't been burned till you've been burned with hot sodium hydroxide - yow momma!!!! Anyway, we always kept a jar of colloidal silver around and used it on burns. It not only helped it heal it seemed to reduce the pain. I don't know how it just did. Now, some folks think you should drink this. They say it has antibiotic properties and is fairly harmless to drink. I don't know if that's true but it sure would be nice if it was. I hate taking antibiotics for a number of reasons. It would be nice to be able to drink something and have the same thing happen. colloidal silver has also been used to keep potable water drinkable for long periods. This sounds like some pretty amazing stuff. Being the scien...
