All in Goals&Process

I have my own process.  I have my own lessons.  I have my own fears.  I have my own successes.

Part of the process I have been working on (as my business shifts and grows, as my life shifts and grows) is my ability to communicate WHO my audience is and WHAT I have to offer to that audience.

This is a great exercise for someone who runs their own business to do at least twice a year.  But it is really useful also if you are an employee or even as a family/community member.  You just take the questions and phrase them a little differently.

I wrote this years ago when Facebook was first catching on.  As I delve into curriculum for an e-course on social media I have been thinking a lot about this type of  networked sharing.  It's also great fun to see where I was coming from then and how I have changed.  But that's a story for a different day...

first joined Facebook about a month ago.  Yeah, I had My Space and Linked In already. To be honest, I didn’t even open the account—my assistant did....

  

 

Some weekday mornings I get to do this.

And it is AWESOME.  Awe inspiring.  Awwww.  Awwww Yeah.

(I am not mentioning, right now, the nights I spend cranking away or the holidays I've given up for work's demands.)

Because I make my own schedule I get to do a lot of things that I want to do.  This includes going for beach walks with my family, mid-morning, on a weekday.  Also, going to the bank during bank hours, yes!  And shopping when no one else is in the store, alright!

 Negotiation is one of my particular strengths.  My skills have increased over time, but negotiation always something I found enjoyable and was good at.  Now that I have a toddler I am getting a whole different kind of practice, which makes me a bit introspective. My ultimate goal (and the reason I enjoy negotiation ) is:

I like when both parties get what they want.
