Let the Games Begin!

Ack!  The website is live and I should start blogging.  I’m pretty safe though, as no one knows I’m here…yet.  This is really a fake blog post because I don’t have a blog integrated into my website yet.  I’m getting to that but I thought it was better to get something on this page just in case someone actually finds their way here.

Where do I start?  That’s the big question that I’m trying to put my arms around.  I was reading a post from Janet Beckers yesterday at http://wonderfulwebwomen.com  and she says to look at:

1.  Personal goals - Mine involve being successful, having my kids think I’m successful, and a trip to Hawaii to sip umbrella drinks.  Janet says to keep these in mind so you can stay focused.  If something comes along that’s not in-line with these goals, just say “no”.

2.  List the skills you have or need to learn - I have many skills, but I am technically challenged.  I need to know when it’s better to bang my head continuously against my computer screen while learning a task vs. parting with my hard-earned cash to pay someone else to do it in 5 minutes.  Is it better to have time or money?

3.  Know your own strengths and weaknesses - Go after what you do well and delegate what you don’t want to do.  Don’t bother trying to “improve yourself” if it’s something you truly don’t like to do.  I like to write and create, which I’m doing right at this moment, but I don’t like doing any of the office duties that go along with a business.

Okay, I’ve explored these 3 things, now what?
