Stubbornness Is Just Another Word For Persistence

Computers can be so frustrating when you can't figure out how to make them do what you want them to do. I've had my share of such problems lately.

First, it was my Google account. Lost my password; phone number had changed, but couldn't put it on my account because I couldn't access my account! Finally, with the help of Kyle's video on the Google Site Kit plugin, was able to get it fixed.

Today, there was a new problem. I had my Wednesday post ready to publish, and went to AWeber to send it to my suppliers. For some reason, I couldn't figure out how to get it on there...nothing I tried work.

Now, wait a minute! I've been doing this same task for months, every time I wrote a new post. I was beginning to think I was getting Alzheimer's. as couldn't find any way to get the site to accept my post and allow me to schedule it.

I finally called AWeber. After a hold of at least an hour, someone finally came on the line to help me. Turns out, they've changed the whole thing. Now it's all automated, so you don't have to schedule your posts...they go on automatically. And, I don't have Alzheimer's.

I had to learn how to check if the post was actually on there, but the problem is now resolved, and my new post is published.

In both cases, it would have been so much easier to forget the whole thing...but I have an overload of stubbornness. I wouldn't let it go, just like a dog who guards a tasty bone. Now, both problems are solved and my ship is sailing smoothly once again.

So, don't let anyone tell you that being stubborn is a bad thing. It could very well be your road to solving problems that seem insoluable. There's always one more option. Remember that. Be sure to check all possibilities.

We are so lucky on here, because so many people are willing to help. Use that resource, and any other that you find when your problem has you stumped. You can find a way.
