Im Catching Up!!
It is the first week of October!!! I am catching up slowly. I am not too sure where to begin with this post because once again I have fallen a little behind myself. One step forward, five steps backwards. I am sure most people can relate!!!!!
On the website development side of things I am excited. I have finally set up my other blogs ready for development. www.spraytanningtips.com. This blog is dedicated to everything in the sunless tanning industry and is related to my e-book that I am completing. I hope to talk about everything spray tanning, giving tips, advice, education & training, product and equipment knowledge and everything to do with the world of spray on tan. The other blog I have started is www.creatingmybusinessonline.com. This blog will be dedicated to everything I am doing and learning about creating a business online. I will talk about my research on products, books I read, techniques I learn and everything I do regarding actually setting up my business from scratch. I am looking forward to working on the new blogs as well as keeping this one going from a personal and life point of view.
Now regarding the life point of view. It seems to me that every time I turn the T.V on nowadays it is all doom and gloom. Lately it is the world economy. I don’t know about you but at the moment I don’t want to get caught up in the hype of it all. I may be naive but I would like to remain positive that we can still create and operate businesses even with the economy the way it is. I think the most important thing with this time is that we remain focused on what our exact needs are and to live within those means. No more spending unnecessarily. I think the thing now is everytime you go to spend your money on items other than the necessities is to ask the question “Do I really need this item?” & if you answer yes then “Why do you need this item?” I know these questions may sound simple to you but they have been the questions I have lived by for the last 7 years.
7 years ago I was over $70,000 in bad silly debt from spending unnecessarily & very bad business choices and I had nothing to show for it! I could have gone bankrupt and maybe in hindsight I should have, however I didn’t and in the last 7 years I have managed to claw my way back and have cleared those debts from living well and truly below my means and asking myself the above questions every time I went to spend money. For those that know me personally they know I have still made some silly choices with my money however having gone through the experiences I have I know that I am prepared for the economic times ahead.
I am actually look forward to watching this time in the world, watching how businesses and people react and what occurs. I think it will definitely be a time of financial learning and speeking of business and learning I had better get back to my studies so until next time……
Be Good To You & Believe in Your Dreams!
