Stop Staring At The Screen!

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

Recently I had surgery on the finger of my right hand. I am right handed, so it was a little awkward to txt, blog or do anything that required the use of my right hand.

What the experience did do was bring me back to life! I went outside and enjoyed sitting on my swing and reading a book......a REAL paper book!! I went outside and played with my dogs and went for walks on the beach. I sat down with my husband and had an actual conversation which was NOT work related.

Two days ago, the stitches came out and now I am back to blogging and enjoying my Chromebook. But......I have rethought about how many hours that I want to spend online. I feel that online businesses are all very important, but spending time with our loved ones and family should always take first priority. When I was a Sales Director for Mary Kay Cosmetics, I worked my business the Mary Kay way......'God first, Family Second, Career third'. ~ Mary Kay Ash

Even though I no longer am in the cosmetic business, I do believe that Mary Kay Ash had it right. As of 2014, Mary Kay Cosmetics had more than 3 million consultants worldwide and wholesale volume in excess of 3 billion. Mary Kay herself was honored as a leading female entrepreneur in American history.

Now that is something worth achieving, wouldn't you agree?!! So.....stop staring at the screen! Get out there and experience nature and life itself :-)

Hugs and best wishes for a beautiful weekend! xoxo
