Today has been great. Well except I didn’t get as much work done as I should have today but the night is young. I am writing this post from Lindsay Manfredi’s new Mac book and I really am loving this keyboard. It’s backlit and just feels nice. The computer is thin and light. I may become a convert to Apple.

Anyways, today I was supposed to finish the edits to my business book but I have so much on my mind. Have a job offer on the table that to be honest is not something I would normally consider as it’s being someones assistant. However, this is a unique situation and I not only think I could really help this business grow but it’s a very productive place for me to work. It will be a switch, as I am using to having an assistant not being one, and I really don’t like being told what to do. But all that aside…..I’m really considering it. In a crazy way I could call it an investment in my future or conversely a huge waste of my time and effort.

The person I would be working for knows how lucky he would be to have a PhD. and all around fabulous chick like me. One main drawback is I always say don’t work for friends and we are friends. I would hate for something to ruin that.

What to do…what to do.

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!!!

….but then I realized it’s not and I am one day closer to the weekend than I thought. Not that weekend days are much different than week days but it is something to talk about. So I got the galley proof last night on my soon to come out fiction book, Stilettos & Scoundrels, and WOW!! it seems so real now. I will be overnighting it back to the printer today and then in about 10 days the books will be shipped. The ebook will be out next week and then the really hard part will start – selling.

Thinking about having to actually sell this thing made me think about goals and how important it is not only to have goals but to have the strategies in place to attain those goals. As we approach the middle of February how many of us have already abandoned our New Year’s resolutions. Is it because our goals were too lofty or we failed to have a solid strategy to attain these goals. Usually it’s the failure to have a solid strategy of daily actions needing to be executed to achieve those goals. So look back at the last few goals you have set and not attained. Take the time to think about what steps you need to take every day to make those goals a reality.

Today’s MS awareness piece is about a study done looking at how drinking milk during pregnancy can reduce the risk of MS

Don’t forget that when you purchase a pre-sale copy of Stilettos & Scoundrels 20% goes to MS.
Peace-
