Sundays In August

Sundays in August will be reserved for short You Tube videos, shot during the past 14 months. Most are only 20 – 60 seconds.

Short, one-take, unrehearsed, raw, in the moment videos of The Blog Whisperer, whispering to the world, “Live, before you die!”

There are very few people who are balanced and real, and willing to share that outlook freely. You decide if I’m one of them, and you decide to watch or not.

While you may get another shot at watching these videos, you will not get another shot at living an extra-ordinary life.

No serious, don’t kid yourself,  you won’t.

Daily Grind Is Wonderful

Better Get Used To The Daily Grind
Better Get Used To The Daily Grind

If you don’t get a handle on the day to day decisions and daily grind, your life will be miserable.

You know it.

I know it.

It’s called being organized.

Not everyone is, because it’s hard.

But it is not impossible.

You just have to work hard at it.

Every day.

Like everything else in life, you get out of it what you put into it.

Trying Something New

Anyone Seen My Phone?
Anyone Seen My Phone?

How challenging is your daily grind?

Meaning, the day to day administrative stuff, like paying bills, deciding when and where to get the oil changed (assuming you have a vehicle), whether to have a battery powered alarm clock as a backup for the electric one and what type to purchase.

Or the process for storing your car keys, wallet, and cell phone, so you never lose these things. Or keeping a backup phone charger in the most logical place.

Without a decent handle on the day-to-day things, your life piles up and overwhelms you.

Ya with me?

Signed A Five-Book Deal

You know I’ve been writing five different blogs everyday for a year now, right?

In fact today marks the one-year anniversary of the writing initiative to reinvent blogging and diversify social media.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed.

A small New England Publisher (and a values-based organization) and I have been in publishing negotiations for several months now, shortly after returning from the World Championships in Finland.

Yesterday, we finally reached an agreement and we signed the contract!

A book a year for the next five years!

Can you believe it.  Five books.  I have worked all my life for this moment.

Wanted to wait until this morning to tell my Family, and you.

Oh, and there’s one more thing you should know:

April Fools!

Note: This was the April Fools Day post I had put up April 1, 2010, and almost immediately took it down.  Had some feedback that it wasn’t that funny. After reading it again this morning, decided it really is post-worthy. Hope it made you smile.
