Kindness is Limitless

In a world where you can be anything, choose kindness.   This design is a daily reminder to lead with compassion and grace. There are unlimited ways that kindness can be performed. 

 

Did You Know?

*** Intentional***

1.      Horses and Kindness

Did you know horses can affect people in a good way?  Interacting with horses can improve physical and mental health in people according to Zoetisequine.com.   Be kind to yourself.   What about going horseback riding?   I remember the first time I went horseback riding with several others.  I was terrified.  I am sure the horse felt it.   I wanted him to go slow, he on the other hand went fast keeping up with the other horses. 

 

2.        Healing Powers

The healing powers of horses is talked about at Wellpower.org.  It has been proven that working in close proximity to a horse can reduce your heart rate, blood pressure, stress hormones, and increase those feel-good endorphins.  Again I say, “Be  kind to yourself.”   It is good to be kind to others but do the same for yourself.   Do not neglect yourself.  `

 

3.      Walk Your Friend’s Dog

You may not have a dog but have you  thought about walking your neighbor’s dog? I have mentioned this before that I visited one of my children.  She has several dogs that she walks daily.  She also stops to pick up her neighbors dog to walk as well.  That dog falls out like a little baby with glee when he see’s my daughter approaching.   He is so happy when he sees her.  

I recall another instance when I took my neighbor mail that was delivered to us in error.   Her small cute dog was sitting out on a leash started wagging his tail as if he knew me.  He then upon my leaving wrapped his paws around my leg very tight.  He did not want me to leave.   I kind of almost did not want to leave him there either.  Don’t rule out dogs as a way to be kind to yourself and a way to be kind to dogs. 

 

4.      Take Someone to Dinner

I recently visited a relative of the family.   My husband and I took her out to dinner.   She asked, “Why are you doing this?”  My response, “  Because you are special.”   She just smiled and told us afterwards she really enjoyed her meal and our company.   It was a win/win situation because we enjoyed her.   She was very knowledgeable and very well versed.  She is considerably older than my husband, but they was raised in the same household.   As they talked about their childhood she told him.  “Now Hush.” “I listened to you.”  She said in a soft stern voice. “Now listen to me.”  To my amazement my husband shut up.  I almost did not believe my eyes.   So we had as good a time as she did.   Kindness can occur in so many different ways.

 

5.     One Kind Act a Day

Did you know that you can be intentional?   You can purpose to perform one kind act a day.   Can you imagine if everyone would purpose to do this?   How much better people could make the world.   In fact, I challenge you to perform one act of kindness a day.   I will purposely do the same. 

 

6.       How Does Kindness Feel?

Have you ever met someone and just instantly felt that they were a kind person?   Their demeanor and nearly everything about them showed kindness.  

Sometimes you may have heard people say, “She is the kindest person that I know.”   Capecod.gov. talks about kindness.  They say kindness can increase your sense of connectivity with others, decrease loneliness, combat low mood and improve relationships.   They further add that it can be contagious, encouraging others to join in with their own generous deeds.  I have seen this.  Again I ask can you imagine just one person being kind and how catching that can be to others until it spreads around the world? 

I recall working with a woman that was so joyful and kind every time I saw her.  I told her when I had my baby I was going to name her Joy, because this woman was so joyful.   I did name one of my children Joy.   However, when she was born, she cried a lot and my other children asked, “Did you bring home the right baby?”  I assured them that I was awake and saw them put the name tag on her even though they attempted to put a name tag on her that said Johnson.   I informed the nurse that my last name was not Johnson as she had several name tags on the tray.   So, she did call out the correct name and I watched since I was awake during the delivery. 

 

7.       Kindness Is Chemical

Did you know that kindness is chemical?   Yes it is.  Did you know that it has been called “the love hormone?”  this hormone Oxytocin is produced when mothers breastfeed.  This cements their bond with their baby according to cedars-sinai.org.  They further added that when we are physically intimate it is tied to making us more trusting, more generous, and more friendlier, while lowering blood pressure.  I can attest to that.   When my husband and I first married there would be days he seemed mad at the world.  I constantly reminded him that I was not only his wife, but his friend that wanted nothing but the best for him. 

 

8.       Appreciation

Do you know anyone that does not want to be appreciated?  Showing appreciation is one of the kindest things that you can do.   I also have discovered that telling someone you appreciate them is even better.   I remember the first time someone told me they appreciated me.   My heart just seemed to melt.  So I challenge you today to tell someone that you appreciate them and watch their response.

New Technology Hacks and Tips

Did you know that there are life hacks and techniques that are available to make for you a simple day?

Try this

1. Keyboard shortcuts

This may not be the newest technology, but why not take advantage of keyboard shortcuts that are available to you? Besides the use of your mouse on your keyboard did you know that you can use Your Ctrl+A to Select All before copying a document, Ctrl+C to copy a document, and Ctrl+V to paste? This is a shortcut option.

2. Clutter

Just as clutter can develop in your house clutter can also develop in your email. Do you clean the clutter from your email? Do you delete and block spam? Spam can clutter your email very quickly. You might want to make it a habit to clean your email daily. I have been guilty of just scanning my email and saying to myself, “I will get to that later.” The problem with that is that it can build up faster than I get back to it. Have you ever had that problem?

3. Public Wifi

Although public WiFi is nice, you want to be cautious. You never know the listening ears that may be listening and attempting to steal your information. Yes it is common now to see those walking down the street or sitting in a restaurant or cafe constantly using their cellphones, but still there needs to be an awareness of your surrounding.

4. Removing Data from Electronics Before Recycling

Do you know how to remove data from Electronics before recycling? Earth911.com suggests that you backup your data, then download a program like Darik’s Boot and Nuke (DBAN) or KillDisk and then burn it to a CD or DVD, once CD or DVD is made boot your computer from the disc, to erase from a cellphone the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) suggest deleting all information and following the manufacturer’s instructions for doing a factory hard reset, and then remove your phone’s SIM (Subscriber Identify Module) and cut it in half.

5. Free Services

Did you know there are several free services available to you on the Internet? These services include free education sites, free trial memberships such as Netflix and Hello Fresh, free music services, free entertainment and tutorials, free podcasts, free ebooks, and much more. I really like the youtube tutorials. They actually show you step by step.

Sometimes when you are attempting to put a product together even though you have written instructions you may discover one little thing that you missed and after watching a tutorial you may be able to see that and correct it.

6. ADHD (Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder)

Are you an adult that suffers with Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder? Did you know there are apps that can help you with that? Some of the best apps for that according to gentitemlist.app include Bear, Best Day Planner Apps, Best Habit Tracker App, Best Focus Timer Apps, and much more.

7. iPhone Tips

Several iphone apps that you may have been missing might include using you iPhone as a recording device, sign documents, turn your phone into a high-tech medical ID bracelet, use your iPhone to help you remember things, and much more, RD.com talks about this and give 64 suggestions.

8. Apps that drain your iPhone battery

Did you know there are apps that will drain your iphone battery? I discovered that Facebook was one of them. Although I am not on Facebook often, I discovered that it can and does drain my iPhone battery. So my remedy is to logoff Facebook when I am not using it. It saves my battery life tremendously. There are also gaming apps that will drain your battery and cause your iPhone battery to become extremely hot. You need to beware of those. Also if you have an app on your phone and your no longer using it, you might want to delete it.

9. Portable Mini-Fan

A great investment that I really like was the portable Mini-Fan. Although it is very small, I was amazed at the power of this fan to keep me cool when needed. I purchased at Amazon and it has a USB cord for recharging when needed.  My price was only $17.00 at Amazon.

10. Calendars

This may not be the latest in technology, but did you know you could use your Smartphone calendar? A physical paper calendar is great but so is a Smartphone Calendar, especially when you are out and may need to write down an appointment. I use both. A physical calendar gives you a daily visual and your Smartphone is great to view when you are not at home.

11. Remote Learning

All students are getting used to this new norm of remote learning. Makeuseof.com/technology further states that with remote learning you can learn anytime, anywhere, there are no age barriers, it is limitless and self-directed learning, there is flexibility and mobility, and there is education for disabled people.

Since the Pandemic I believe remote learning has become more popular even though remote learning is not for everyone. Many of those in college have elected to take remote classes as well.

12. Instant DO NOT CALL

Even though you are on the DO NOT CALL list do you still receive numerous telemarketer calls? Remove and replace.com suggests that when a telemarketer calls you just simply pressing the 9 button on your phone while you are talking with the telemarketer it will automatically disconnect the call and add your phone to their internal do not call list. They further added that this is a new feature that helps you combat those telemarketing calls that somehow keep calling you. They do, however, suggest not to engage with Robocalls, because pressing any buttons can sometimes confirm that your number is active, thus, leading to even more calls.

Have You or Someone You Know Seen These 6 Red Flags

 

Bloggers Meet and Greet March*** Happiness Today

 

Do Circumstance Steal Your Joy

 

 

 

New Marketing Platforms

I really love linky sites for spreading blogging news, but I realize that new marketing platforms are reshaping the way brands connect with their audience. Have you noticed this?

Something to Think About

***Intentional***

I have observed although linky sites still exits several have started dwindling away. Linky sites exits in certain special niches and several linky sites are becoming monthly sites as oppose to weekly. I have observed some of the monthly sites are quite large.

 

1. Group Sharing

Are you aware of group sharing. One of the trends that seems to be increasing is group sharing. Sharing to groups and becoming part of groups that share each other’s work. I am a part of several groups on Pinterest. Many of these Pinterest groups have become so large that they are no longer accepting any new people. I like the group sharing in that you share your work and theirs and they will share your blogging work in return.

2. Interactive Content

What about live videos? I  will do videos of my content. There are those that like the videos and the fact that music is available for free to play with the video post. Videos for Redbubble.com, Tik-Tok, Instagram, and Pinterest are my favorites sites to post. I have 1.7 followers on Pinterest. Several of my followers are from groups that also have many more followers than I do. So that saying that sometimes you can do more with groups than you can attempting to do some things on your own might be a reality. Technology has advance so much that it is right at our finger tips.

Although I like Tik-tok I really like Pinterest because it publishes very fast. Tik-tok tends to be a little slower, but has awesome music to pick from to add to your post.

3. AI (Artificial Intelligence)

Is AI (artificial Intelligence) here? Yes it is. You will find AI in the hospitals, doctor offices, on the television, on social media such as Facebook, on the telephones, and much more. AI is everywhere. Did you know that when you do a search on your cellphone or computer usually AI responses pop up first? It does not matter what you are searching for. Just try it. Do a search on anything? See what happens?

4. AI Can Create a Blog

There was a time you would need to create your own blog, but now AI can do that for you. It can generate blog post drafts, topics, and  optimize for SEO (Search Engine Optimization). However, I cannot emphasize enough that AI is not human, but it is just what it says Artificial Intelligence. It may contain errors and need editing. I have found this to be so true with talking into the television remote. It seemingly does not understand so I have to be really careful to enunciate. A few of my relatives live in Grand Blanc, Mi. When using google maps for travel the artificial intelligence pronounces it as (Grand Blonk instead of Grand Blank). It also pronounces Clio Road as (Klee-O Road instead of Cli-0 Road). Again artificial Intelligence. It does not know.

I also need to share this, although a little off the subject. One day when using google maps it took me to a normal exit I have used in the past. Apparently it was not updated, because it was closed for construction. Yes, there is a lot of construction going on right now. I believe technology does not always keep up.

5. Linky Sites

Although linky sites are fewer depending on the niche you use. I will still continue to use linky sites along with AI for now, because I truly love the linky sites that I am using and they have large followers as well. I really like the monthly linky sites which allow you to post throughout the month at your own leisure.

6. Digital Marketing

Did you know that digital marketing is one of the largest platforms in Technology today? In 2025 e-learning revenue was $165 Billion, gaming $116 Billion, music and video streaming $77,8 Billion, and SaaS (Software as a Service) $77 Billion.

Amasty.com talks about this. They further add that e-Books, online Courses and Workshops, Planners and templates, design assets and graphics, stock photography, memberships and exclusive content, music and audio tracks, software and mobile apps, fonts and typography kits, social media templates, website themes ad templates, digital marketing resources and toolkits, personal finance and budgeting spreadsheets, and meditation guides and wellness content are the best digital products to sell. Are you using any of these methods along with your blog?

7. Instagram

I also like instagram for promoting my blog. At instagram I can also, post, go live, or do a video reel. Instagram also has free music to add to the post if you want to. You may need to experiment to find which platforms work best for you. I like using several platforms not just one.

8. Community and Forums

Have you heard that old adage that community is everything? According to medium.com having people participate in a community and converse with each other is a platform that you can be a leader in. They further add that you can add people to it, there can be offline meetups and events.

9. Pinterest

I like the Pinterest platform because it is a visual pinboard. When visiting and posting on linky sites I can pin bloggers post instantly that I find interesting. I really love the creating a pin feature because you create a video instantly and it is published for your viewing almost instantly after creating. The swiftness of it is very intriguing to me. Again technology at your finger tips.

So although I use numerous platforms for my blog my favorite pics for platforms are Pinterest and Tik-tok. What platforms do you prefer?

Money Saving Tips

Do you use coupons? What are the advantages of using coupons? Can you really save by just using coupons? Why pay full price when you can snag the best deals every day?

Did You Know?

   

***Intentional***

What are your feelings about using coupons? Do you pay full price on items because you can afford it?

1. Digital Coupons

Did you know that technology is so advanced that you do not need a printer to use coupons? Yes you can save more and spend less. I frequently use Kroger and Meijer digital coupons. The great thing about this is in their app you just click on the coupons you want to use then when you shop it is automatically applied to your grocery list as you checkout in the store. This is so convenient and it even tells you at the end of the list how much you have saved. Also, Kroger will allow you to use coupons on certain items up to 5 times. Now that is really a savings for me. I love that Kroger has 5x the fuel coupons which saves you when purchasing gas for your vehicle.

2. Coupons by Mail

You can still live the frugal life. Now if you are not into the technology of coupons just yet, you can always receive coupons by mail. Hasselfreesavings.com talks about this. They have a list of 358 companies to contact for coupons. They even tell you what to write in an email for coupons.

3. Do Billionaires use Coupons?

Do billionaires use coupons? They most certainly do. According to cnbc.com some of the world’s wealthiest people are still cost-conscious. Perhaps that’s why they’re so rich in the first place. They further added that when Warren Buffet and Bill Gates were traveling together they decided to get lunch at McDonald's. Warren reached into his pocket and pulled out coupons. 

Speaking of riches I recall working with a CEO’s son. His teen-age son felt he should not have to bring his lunch to work. He commented why have a lot of money and not use it. I emphasized to him it is his parent’s money not his. He did not realize how much his parent’s may have already sacrificed to become CEO of an organization.

4. Buy Items You Use

Always be money smart. It is important to remember that you want to shop wisely and strategically. Just do not obtain coupons if you are not going to use them. When extreme couponing, you need to  know to purchase items that you will use. Money.howstuffworks.com gives an example of not buying 15 cans of tuna for a great deal if you will never eat what you bought. If you do this you are not saving any money at all. Have you seen or do you know someone that orders things because they feel it is a great deal even though they may not use it, but thinks maybe one day they might need it? You should make sure that you do not have that mindset with coupons.

5. Search for Coupons

Budgetsmadeeasy.com talks about searching for specific coupons at coupons.com. They further suggest contacting the manufacture for coupons letting them know that you love their products and would like to know where you can find coupons. Remember you want to save money and live better.

6. Why Stores Use Coupons

Did you know that stores know that the more they discount their products or the more they “give,” the more likely you will spend your money with them. Ramseysolutions.com talks about this and further adds that stores do not want you to know they have discounted some of their items so much that they actually lose money on that item just to get you in the door.

7. Temu controversy

There have been pros and cons about ordering from Temu.com online. I can say that I have had great results and savings from ordering form Temu. Something I notice is that you are bombarded with online coupons and discounts. They do this in such a way to hold your attention and not leave the page. I can honestly say I have received great products (mainly clothing) from Temu and I have received the products at a great price. I set my limits when shopping because I see so many things that I really like. I really love their return policy which has been very accurate from my experience. I want to remember to save more and spend less. I have had to return a few things that were not quite what I expected from the pictures, but the returning was very easy and no cost to me. The rate of returns have been far less than the great products I have received.  I can honestly say that.

8. Pros and Cons of Coupons For Your Business

Do you know the pros and cons of using coupons for your business? The advantages of using coupons for your business include introducing new customers to your store or website, email marketing list, and social media websites can be used for coupons according to investopedia.com. They further added that the disadvantages of using coupons for business include costing your business money and reducing profit.

9. Does Coupon Fraud exist?

Yes coupons fraud exists. According to unit21.ai the Queenpins case was a case in Phoenix, Arizona. Robin Ramirez bought bulk quantities of counterfeit coupons and when the house was raided the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) recovered over $40 million worth of fake coupons. I also saw the movie “Queenpins” the women were greedy and really got carried away with couponing. This couponing was an entire different level. I would never had imagine. 

So while you want to save money couponing you also want to make sure you are not doing anything illegal with your couponing regardless to how good the couponing gets. Save money with couponing. Take advantage of using digital couponing, but do not go overboard. I very seldom do paper couponing, because I have become so accustom to digital couponing and digital is the new Technology. You can have a coupon in your cellphone and just have the store clerk scan the barcode. This is so convenient and faster than the paper coupon. So are you using coupons or even thinking about it?

9 Lessons Learned

 

What the World Needs Now is Love

 

 

 

My First Job

Do you remember your first job? Was it an experience that will last with you forever? Do you ever regret the first job that you acquired?

                                                 Find   a  job 

                                         ***Theme: Gratitude***

1. A Great Opportunity

My First job did not last very long. Remote jobs were not as many as there are now. I was housecleaning for a lady on the other side of town. I was only thirteen. I needed to catch the bus to get to her house. I only worked about 2 days. She wanted me to wash the walls and she even agreed to help. Now mind you there was a play in school that I wanted to try out for. I could not make rehearsals and work too. I needed to make a choice. My best girlfriend helped me to see things much clearer. She told me, “You will probably be working the rest of your life, but you will only have once chance in this high school play.” So that helped me make up my mind. I quit my job after 2 days. I did not regret it though. The play was awesome. I loved the theater. I knew it then.

Now since I only worked 2 days I really did not consider that a job that is for me anyway. Technology was not as large as it is now. There were not many online jobs as there are now. My real job that I grew to love came after My pastor had passed away and the church had a new pastor. The church needed a secretary. My first real job was at age 14-years-old. The pastor hired me as part-time secretary. I was so elated. My first secretary job. I remember one of the requirements from my pastor was that I and anyone else on the payroll was required to tithe. So I learned about the importance of tithing at an early age.

2.   Church

I was typing the church bulletin with one finger. We had a typewriter not a modern computer with a mouse. The pastor walked in and stated, "I hired you and you can't even type." I politely responded, " I am taking typing this semester in school." He then stormed out of the office. When he hired me, he did not ask me if I could type so I did not tell him. I wanted this job so bad. I was determined to make it work.

3.   Bulletins

That Sunday my first bulletin was passed out to the congregation. I had misspelled nearly everyone's name in the bulletin including my pastor's name. Again, he was quite upset. My pastor yelled quite often. He called me into his office after church. He yelled, "Now you can misspell everyone else name, but you never misspell the name of your boss."  If you were working for someone else, you would have been fired for this." I prayed and I prayed, "God please don't let me get fired." I felt bad enough already. I could hear members making snide remarks such as, "He hired her and she can't even type." I wanted to hide somewhere, but there was no where to run and nowhere to hide. I wanted to cry, but I held it in.

4.   Typing Skills

Eventually I did learn typing the keyboard and made drastic improvements in my secretarial skills. I eventually was typing 60 wpm. Not bad for a teenager. Now eventually I learned quite a lot from my pastor. I remember my first job well. He definitely taught me about bookkeeping, organizational skills, and paying bills on time. He would give the check book to me. I would type the checks and he and another trustee just needed to sign them. He would tell me, "Now you know the telephone bill needs to be paid, or we will not have any telephone service. " If you do not pay consumers, we will not have any lights or heat." "So I expect you to automatically pay the necessary bills." That has always stuck in my mind through adulthood. Pay my bills first and on time. That is a must.

5.  Perfection

I learned how to compile quarterly and yearly reports. Compiling and typing those reports sometimes caused for long hours. I did not realize it at the time, but he wanted to be as transparent to the church as possible. If anyone had questions about what they had contributed to the church, he wanted that to be available to them. His wife would often bring him food up to the church when we worked and she never forgot me. She always brought me something. I remember she was a good cook and I loved her heavenly blueberry cobbler.

My pastor was a perfectionist. He did not like anything half done.

I remember having to type my pastor's sermons. I did not mind, except sometimes I would have to come to the church on Saturday and type it. I once asked him, " Why can't you give me your sermon to type through the week.?" His response was, " I might not hear from God as to what to preach until Saturday." I thought to myself, " I am just a teenager, he is interfering with my weekend time since I go to school during the week." I continued to work as secretary for 8 years all the way until I finished college. I would work full-time in the summer time. I loved my job. I loved making my own money.

Bless his heart, my former pastor has now passed away. I will always remember my first job. I will never forget what he taught me and where I came from. I do go back to visit my former church from time to time. I have learned to never " burn bridges." I will always remember that was where I got my first start and my first training.

The Positive Challenge

 

Do You Know Your Blogging Niche?

Do you know your blogging niche? What is it that you love to write about? What is your passion when writing?

Did You Know?

If you have not identified your niche, you may have to try writing about a few different things to determine exactly what your niche is.

*** Intentional ***

Let’s explore several possible niches that might interest you.

1. Faith

If you are a believer, you might want to write about your faith and personal convictions. You might have testimonies to share that will help another. You never know what others are going through and your testimony just might be the thing that helps another.

2. Travel

I have seen several travel blogs. Are you one that loves to travel? Then you might want to write about those experiences.  It will be good to write about you traveling the states or the world. That type of knowledge can be very beneficial to others. You might write about traveling with family or traveling with children. What about the best places to take a vacation? People are always looking for information about good vacationing spots.

3. Food

Writing about food can cover a lot of territory. Possibly you have special restaurants or special foods that you love to cook and  share.  Certain places have the best food.

4. Personal Goals and Fitness

Possibly you are on a fitness journey to loosing weight. You may want to blog about that journey. Your listeners will be glad to know how it is that you do it. That would definitely be an inspiration to others that may have been struggling with weight loss. It will let others know that they are not the only ones that may have issues. You may have new details that others had not even considered for weight loss. That enlightenment alone may be of great value to others.

5. Finances

Possibly you have done well financially over the years. You might want to share how you arrived at your present status. You might want to share some of your pitfalls so others will not fall into the same. Finances may have been easy for you, but harder for others. Your sharing your knowledge might make all the difference in another’s life. Sharing the pros and cons in your financial endeavor before arriving to the stage that you are now in may help others realize that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

6. Video Games

The gamers out there love video games. If you happen to be a gamer you might want to blog about video games. You may find the best video games. You may indicate the ups and the downs of video gaming.

7. Technology

Technology is growing very fast. You may want to share your technology tips. Since technology is growing so fast keep in mind what is new today will be old tomorrow. What is the best computer to have? What are the best technology jobs? What Technology jobs pay the most? What Technology jobs are hiring?

8. Hair Blogging

Are you good with hairstyles? Possibly you could start a blog actually showing the hairstyles and the process you go through in doing them. Possibly a tutorial blog. I know I have seen many hair tutorials that helped me a lot. Just seeing how things are done makes all the difference in the world. The fact that people are willing to show you their techniques is something that I wished they had had hundred of years ago. People that are visual learners would definitely benefit from the hair tutorials. I have been truly blessed with the hair tutorials, because otherwise I would not have tried certain hairstyles. I recall one beautician that I had she always wore the best hairstyles. I even recall telling her I want my hair done just like yours. Well now with the tutorials you get a clear visual of how the hairstyles are done. I just love that.

9. DIY Projects

I also had a hairstylist that loved to renovate houses and she was very good at it. Do you love to renovate houses and building? A blog showing you actually going through the process would be so helpful to others. If this is a passion or something you love to do then you should do it. When you find your passion, you will find your niche.

10. Tech and AI

Did you know that elementor.com talks about some of the most profitable blogs as being tech trends and innovations, software reviews, AI (Artificial Intelligence) applications, VR (Virtual Reality) and AR (Augmented reality), and Web2 and Blockchain?

11. Diabetes

Do you have Diabetes? What about blogging about the highs and lows of diabetes? What about taking your readers on your diabetic journey? Diabetes is a disease that needs to be talked about because it includes your diet, emotions, possible meds, and much more. I truly admire Patti Labelle. She has written many books regarding diabetic recipes and health. She has shared that she is a diabetic. She loves to cook and is a marvelous actress and awesome singer. Besides the books she has many tutorials as well. Everyone’s story is different so why not share yours in your blog?

12. Twins

Do you have twins? What about blogging about it. Even though some twins may be identical there are some differences. I am a grandmother of fraternal twins and I often see their differences as well as the ways that they are alike. I recall at age 4 my twin granddaughter wanted to practice tying her shoes up on her twin brother. He refused and to my surprise she sucker punched him. I told her to apologize and that was unacceptable. Again to my surprise my twin grandson grabbed her and hugged her and responded, “That is okay. I love just you.” I was so proud of him at age 4 years old. Also, I believe it caught my twin granddaughter by surprise as well. I am sure if you have twin children you would have many more stories to speak of. I believe as twins get older identical twins are not traditionally dressed alike, but rather different because they have their own unique personality.

So these are just a few things that might be your niche and passion for blogging.

Writer’s Block Isn’t the End

I am sure all writers have experienced writers block at some time or another. What do you do when you have writer’s block? Where do you get your inspiration from?

Did You Know?

***Intentional***

1. Brain on Strike

Have you ever sometimes felt that your brain was on strike? You want to write, but the topics and words are not flowing. Then there are other days that you can hardly stop writing. I guess you might call that the good days and the bad days. Someone once said that God never wastes an experience. Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose. I believe it and I receive it. Know that writer’s block is not the end, but rather just a pause before inspiration flows again. What can you do about it?

Did you know that sometimes a stolen word or line from a book or song can be motivational for you. Have you ever heard a song and found yourself humming or singing that song most of the day? Our choir sung the song last week, “I can depend on God.” For some reason I was humming that song all day and all night. I really was surprised as I turned over throughout that night I was hearing that song in my head. Things like that can give you the inspiration that you need. Sometimes the seemingly little things, but dare I say there is nothing little about God.

1. What About Nature?

Have you thought about hiking the trail or just taking a walk into nature? It is one of the most useful tool for maintaining creativity. Did you know that? According to bewrit.com creatives need to keep a constant well of inspiration and motivation to produce at their best for a long-term period. They further added that studies show that unplugging from the digital world and heading outside boosts creativity by 50%. Can you imagine?

2. A Letter

I recall my pastor suggested that we write letters to 3 people that had influenced us throughout our lives. One of the people that I chose was him. I wrote him a letter. He had explained that sometimes we do not realize how much we influence and impact other’s lives. Also, while writing all 3 letters I had never given much thought about the influence either until I started writing. He also emphasized it is important to let others know how they have impacted your life. Something like that phrase, “Give them their flowers while they yet live.” That is one reason it is important to let people know that you appreciate them.  Now as I thought about the letter for some reason my words started flowing like a river.

Often I purchase water 5 or more cases at a time when on sale. Many times my husband may not be with me. I usually ask the cashier for someone to assist me and put the water in the car. They do this without hesitation. I also, make it a point to let whoever loads my water that I really appreciate them for doing that.

 

3. Humor

Can you think of a funny instance that you could write about. I recall when I was 7 months pregnant and all stomach.  My sister-in-law and my sister invited me to go to the nightclub with them.  I went with my sister and sister-in-law to the nightclub. I wanted to get out of the house. Soon as we got there a man asked me to slow dance. I did. Afterwards as I took my coat off, he asked me to dance again. To my surprise he commented, “ Oh I did not know that you were pregnant.” My sister very loudly, “Man you did not see that big stomach.” She embarrassed me so. I was not laughing then, but when we looked back at the situation we could laugh about it, because in all honesty I was very large, but that did not prevent me from dancing. I loved dancing and to this day I still do. Whenever my grands and us all get together for birthdays or open houses we dance. What humorous things can you think of to write about?

4. Routine

Do you have a certain routine for writing? Do you have a certain order? Maybe it is time to shake it up a bit and change your usual routine. Maybe switch from writing a certain time of day. Try writing at different times of the day. You may find that some times are better than other. What about your body rhythms? You are an emotional being so there may be some days you feel better than others. Some days maybe you feel sleepy. Other days you may feel more energetic. Take advantage of the energetic days.

5. Humbling Experience

I have talked about this in the past. When I had eye surgery that was a very humbling experience. The first couple of weeks I was on pain pills and slept a lot. I could not even put my eye drops in my eye. My husband had to do it. The most painful for me was I could not get on the computer without having a headache. I thought to myself what if I can no longer write on the computer. My eyes were sensitive to car lights and any outside light. My eyes are still sensitive to light, but thank God for sunglasses. I wear them now when driving.

I kept in my mind that God gives us more than one talent. So I started assessing what other talents I had that did not necessarily involve writing. Still I did not give up. I discover a screen from Amazon that lessened the computer light. I actually dimmed the light on my computer. Next I would get on the computer for just 5 minutes daily and eventually increasing it as my eye became stronger. Eventually I was up to an hour on the computer and no headache whatsoever.   Before I knew it, I was writing again. I give all that credit to God. What humbling experience have you had that you could share with others?
