Are you wondering what I have been up to?
Hello everyone. I hope you are all doing well.
Me I am doing great. I have been productive as Jay mentioned in his last live video training.
I have went through all of the over 1000 plus people I have been following and if you happened to have your social media links listed I have followed each and everyone.
I have also been working through some training that I have had tucked away. I am glad I did I have found some very useful things (at the time I tucked them away I didn't understand them).
For example someone did training on how to check if your site is indexed by google. I have done this before but what I didn't know until this training is that doing this google can also show what is wrong with a page not indexing.
Low and behold I have had one post for a while now that has not been indexed and I couldn't figure it out. So I found the problem by doing this training.
Now I found out that the problem is that page is not mobile friendly. So here is one of my next chores.
However, back on the productive side I have been keeping up with Facebook and keeping active following Bo's training.
I also have been trying to read through and respond to some of the blogs and questions for this wonderful group we have here.
One thing I can take away from all of this is simple, If we want success we, ourselves have to make it happen. Put your foot forward and think what can I do to make this better.
I have done the thinking on this and now I am implimenting it all. Success is just an arms length away! Can you reach it? I know you can and so can I.
So let's do it!

Thanks Melissa Nice! I don’t think we have the powers to make things happen, they happen themselves.
We are just going through a tried and tested method of training which takes work and effort - it’s the outcome that is a mystery in our earlier stages!

I know it will take time but when it is time I want to make sure I am ready.
Thank you Wayne
Nice post, Melissa. I know what you mean about stashing posts that sound like I need to know the content, but understand them yet, because I am not that far in the training yet. Carol
Yea it is always a nice surprise when you pull one and can go aha I know what they are talking about now.
You will get there.
That's true. I have had a few "ah-ha" moments already. Another use for that idea is when I want to learn something or check into someone's site, but need to be working on my own. I just had a message from Eliane telling me about Mia's website to learn Portuguese. I think it would be fun to check it out, but don't have the time right now, so that one's stashed for later when the $ are rolling in and I have nothing to do!
That is another good one. Throughout the day I generally try to respond to questions if they are not answered and respond to my responses but I usually save the blogs for later when my brain is done for the day lol. If I don't get them all I put them aside as well to read later. Lot of interesting and learning in there as well.
When I first started I was trying to read and respond to every post every day, but that soon got to be too much for me, and I wasn't getting my training done. So now, I screen the posts that are relevant to me, or from my mentors or friends, and save the ones that are over my head for later. I'm more selective in the ones I read and respond to now, by necessity.
Hi Melissa. Did you know you can check your site speed, desktop and mobile, in the details on your site manager? I've made it a habit to do this for every post. Usually images are the issue.
Yes I knew about this but and I have had some in the red just not sure on how to fix them. Working on this though. But I am not sure if that is why this one post is not mobile friendly. However, I just discovered it so haven't played with it to much.
Thank you
When my mobile were red it was images. I used tiny png on them and reinstated them and all was good. Hope this helps
Thank you very much. That is what I was going to try. However I was just going through things finishing up and getting ready to do this when I opened that post and I have no idea what has happened I had a post with over a 1000 words and almost all of it is gone there is only 417 words there now no pictures. I tried to open the edits so I could try one of those but they wouldn't open either. So I guess this means I get to rewrite this post. Ugg and it was one of the hardest ones for me to write to. Need a creativity spike tomorrow. lol
But I thank you for that reference that does help out a lot!
I had some people getting confused on this and addressing my name seems a little more professional.
However, I would love it if you still kept my nickname!
