My Newbie
Two Cents Worth
By

I admit the summer bug got me. I’m finding it harder and harder to concentrate with the bright sunshine streaming through the windows. That along with life’s distractions - the only summer slowdown I’ve seen is me. Part of it is because of ME, but part of it is because of where life takes you. We all have to balance out the things we can change and the things we can’t. The past 6 weeks, I’ve had a series of events here at home that took me away from work for long periods of time. If I worked for someone outside the home I would have been let go, because of the time I had to take off, as a business owner this concerned me even more. I have invested time and money to starting and growing my business and it is costing me money to keep it running every month. I couldn’t work at it for days at a time and when I did get the time, my mind was someplace else. When I thought about it in one day I was back and forth to the computer about 10 times and I got absolutely nothing accomplished. I just couldn’t get involved in anything. It was a very unsettling feeling. Today I sat down with my coffee and started going thru my barely budding empire and thought “I’ve totally lost my direction” I had several hours of quiet work time and I just didn’t know where to start! I sat for the longest time just staring at the screen.
Being that my attention span is that of a goldfish these days - The next thing I knew I was at the Internext website. Hubby and I are going to the convention in August. It’s our first convention which is sure to be exciting and we’re looking forward to meeting several folks from VNWR there. It’s going to be really neat to meet face to face. In addition to making some new friends, the Internext was going to be a place to learn. I started thinking about what I wanted to acheive over the next few months. So while it was fresh in my mind, I wrote down just what I was stuck on. I wrote down my questions and thoughts. I just recently started writing things in my own handwriting and in a crazy way it is a big help.
