BE A BLOGGER – WHO ME?

by Corinne on February 5, 2010

YES, YOU.  WHY NOT?

This is what I wrote on my “about page” about three years ago.

What?  Me a blogger?  And crazy about it!  It is like being obsessed with a new lover.  Until recently, if I told you that I knew what the difference was between a web page and a blog, I would be lying.

Now I do.  As they say in Brooklyn, where I originated, “Who knew?”

IF I CAN DO IT SO CAN YOU

It has become one of the most gratifying experiences of my life.  I write an article about every five to seven days and I have new friends from all over the world.

It is a friendly place.  Bloggers are a private club who support each other.

First.  What is a blog?

A blog is a little like an e-mail interchange that you do every day now with your friends.  Except it is an instant public conversation.  You control what you have to say.  You write something and people who read it can give their opinion, ask questions or complain.

There is a place after your writing called “comments.”  It is an interactive forum.  Everyone sees what you have written and everyone can read the comments.  And, you can comment on the comments.  You can also delete the comments before they are published if you don’t like something or if they are just spam.

How is it different from a web page?

A web page is more of a statement or an advertisement.  Usually, unless you are technically adept, you will probably need a webmaster – an expert to set it up for you. I know I couldn’t do it.   If you want to change something on it, usually the webmaster has to do it for you.

People cannot offer comments except to send you an email or ask you something via their “contact us” feature.  The general public does not see these.

YOU DON’T NEED AN EXPENSIVE WEBMASTER TO HAVE A BLOG.  YOU CONTROL IT.

Everyone who has an Internet connection can find your blog if they know your blog address, which is the title of your blog.  They can access it just like you can search for a product or service by putting your blog title in the information slot at the top of your email page or if they go to a search engine like Google to locate it.

Why would an ordinary person want a blog?

A couple of examples.

Are you a Cubmaster for over thirty little boys in the Scouts?

If so, you are constantly on the telephone making arrangements for meetings, planning events, arranging outings, looking for parent volunteers to escort these events and – on and on.

You can use a blog to distribute information and answer questions.  It would save a lot of his time and the parents could print out the information for future reference.

They can also answer and you will get the communication instantly.  No more interrupted dinners.

Are you involved in your church?

Post information on activities and even put the transcript of the Sunday sermon on line for people who missed it or are physically unable to come to church.

Do you have a business, a product, talent or burning purpose you would like to share with the world?

This is the 21st century way to do it – A BLOG.

If you have been reading my blog, you may have noticed I seldom recommend programs.

This time I want to suggest a program that I bought.  It is excellent and does not cost a fortune – Download free information and it will take you by the hand and lead you kindly, patiently and efficiently to set it up right.

IT IS CALLED BECOME A BLOGGER.

Can you make money on a blog?

The answer is yes.  You can sell ads on your blog if you have a lot of people coming to read it.  This is not for the faint hearted.  You have to produce a lot of articles and it could take a year to build up interest from advertisers.  But, think about it, you could do this from your home computer until you are 102!

How do I learn to do this?

Take a look at the program and the free videos.

WHAT IS YOUR INTUITION TELLING YOU?

by Corinne on January 29, 2010

ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION TO YOUR INTUITION?

Free will gives us full control over our choices -

- but every action has a reaction and that reaction is on automatic.

It is important to think carefully about our options.  It is unrealistic to make a poor decision and hope for the best.

We all have a small inner signal which guides us toward the right thing.  An Internal Teacher.  Perhaps, a Guardian Angel.  The Voice of Intuition.

IF WE USE IT.

Spiritual teachers says that we can train ourselves to hear the answer to a problem.

Some say we can feel the answer somewhere in our bodies.  The first step is to ask for guidance when we are calm.  If we are afraid, it distorts the answer.

Then, pick the Higher Power that is most comfortable and ask.

Universal Intelligence is available to all of us.

Everyone’s signal system is different.  Mine is in the region of my heart.  If I ask a question and the answer is NO, I get a feeling of restriction in that area.  Something closing up.  If it is YES, the feeling is calm and seems open.

Others can sit quietly and their head actually nods downward for yes, and side to side for the opposite.

Each person must find their own signal.

Start with something small and ask for the answer.  Practice with something where the answer is obvious.  For example, “Is my name —-? “ Then, watch and feel your body.  It could be a signal almost anywhere.

Another way is to get very calm before you ask and write the answer on a piece of paper.  Don’t think about it.  Just write the first thing that comes into your mind.

Ask minor questions until you feel secure enough to tackle a big problem.

I wouldn’t start with things like, “Shall I sell my house and move to California?” or “Shall I file for divorce?”

Sometimes, our Guidance comes from something we accidentally read, a billboard, a child – an accident – a stranger on a plane.

We also could  be the “answer” for someone else.

I was seated next to an elderly man on a plane. A very religious man.  He had lost his wife only a few months ago but was contemplating getting married again right away.  He told me the Holy Spirit had found him someone.

He had met a “wonderful woman.”

It was a four hour trip so he had plenty of time to tell me about her and his life.

He seemed to be quite well off financially and was helping his daughter after she lost her job.  Her house was going into foreclosure.

His ex-daughter in law had been deserted by his son, who was a drug addict. He was paying her rent and expenses so she could support his young granddaughter.

Such a lovely and generous man.

Then, he dropped the bomb.

He said this “wonderful woman” objected to his generosity and they had “things to work out in that department.”

What?

She felt his children were old enough to take care of themselves and he should save his money.  (For her?)

I didn’t even know the man’s name.  The plane was about to land.  But the words just popped out of my mouth.

I said, “I have a message for you from the Holy Spirit.  You are not to marry that woman.  You deserve a kind person in your late years.  She is a mean woman.”

This gentle man looked stunned as we were getting off the plane.

Then, he turned to me and said, “God seated next to me so I could hear that message.  I knew it but I wasn’t listening.  Thank you.”

Things like that are not always coincidences.  The last thing on my mind that day was to be a Messenger.

When doors are shutting in front of us, it could be a signal we are not listening.  Perhaps we should look the situation again with new eyes.  It could be a bad idea, or an idea whose time has not come.

Maybe it is it’s a matter of waiting for something, or someone to be ready for us.

Or, a path we should not be on at all.

What is your experience with intuition?

Have you listened?

Was it right?

HOW TO STOP WORRYING

Do you worry?
I hear a faint “no” in the background.  That’s OK.   We know you are lying but you can hang out with the rest of us anyway.
A friend told me she has the answer.  She sits by her bedroom window and visualizes a little toy train.  The locomotive has a flag that says “Listen [...]

TRUST – and a manicurist

Business has switched from “nailing down the sale” to establishing relationships and TRUST with your clients.  Whether you are a blogger or selling shoes.
It reminded me of Goldie.

She was a manicurist.  She [...]
