Fabulous Friday ya Saucy Enchilada!
“Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit.” ~e. e. cummings
Welcome to the new Friday Roundup of things I’m reading, watching and/or collecting around the web. This week’s topics include Money, Marketing, and Millennials…
But first, how ya doing? Really, take a moment to check in. Has it been a great week?
The week started off a bit discombobulated, for me. Yes, I know “discombobulated” is a pretentious word, but it describes my week well. Until yesterday that is. I do not know if my coffee contained some kind of super power juice or if it is because I’ve been back off gluten for a week or so, but I really kicked butt! I updated my operating system, started setting up Google Apps, upgraded my cloud storage, cleaned up files, ran Clean My Mac, set up some new client systems, and much, much more! I was a productivity rockstar! (Takes a moment to pat self on the back.)
All of this in preparation for a lot more writing work that is coming my way, Whoo HOO! It feels good to be organized doesn’t it! If you are feeling discombobulated yourself, no worries. Just give yourself a break and take the weekend to re-group. Deep breaths my friend. Now, enough rambling, on to the roundup…
