Everywhere I went today, I felt that every task that I was trying to complete, was a restricted area. I knew that I'm here to succeed, so I decided, might as well push the upgrade button today, instead of two days from now, and I did. I know it's the right path, without question, but suddenly I'm feeling tremendously overwhelmed. I'm fairly creative, loud, and somewhat off the wall, some might even say crazy, and my mind runs a million miles per minute. I'm determined to do my first website today, so all night long after I narrowed down my niche, which for me was a real chore, I want to do everything and help everyone, but not on this one, I have to reel it in. Anyway, I'm not much of a sleeper, and I must have spent hours creating domain names, names that rhyme, names that sound catchy, names that would grab your attention, without giving any thought to keywords. So this morning I selected maybe a dozen that I could narrow it down to and went to Live Chat to get some feedback, good or bad, I can handle it, but the most valuable response that I got was "you should be more concerned with keywords", absolutely right. I just go off on some tangent being creative, thinking way beyond where I should be, and pass by the groundwork. Honestly, in my lifetime, I've found that the way I am, works, I've been successful in the world of humans, probably because of some of these attributes, but in this digital world, it's just not going to do anything favorable for me. I've been in the Political arena, the Travel World and Hospitality and Event world, and all of these are "the bigger and the more grandiose the better" but how do I retrain a 60 year old brain, not to run off and get off the idea that bigger is always better. I need to reign this in and slow it down so I can concentrate on the groundwork.

Then I tried to start searching key words and right now I am so lost, and so confused that I went to google and Jaxxy and realized I don't even know what it is that I'm looking for, so I decided that it's time for a break, basically so that I don't breakdown.

I'm 100% full speed ahead, and I know I'll get it, and usually fairly quickly, but just not all at once. I have been sitting in this chair for going on, oh, six plus hours, juggling two or three hats at the same time. I think it's time to get up, get some air, and then come back with a fresh outlook. I will say, that I've never written a blog before, it's a good way to release, lets just hope that not too many of you. out there, read this , as I'll probably get a reputation for being the local lunatic, but when all lis said and done, it made me feel better, let out some of the stress, and gave me a chance to put everything into perspective. Thanks Blog... I'll probably try you again, you're certainly quieter than getting up and shouting, and safer than sitting here and banging my head against the wall in frustration. Blog, actually what is a blog, I don't know that either but you know I'll go find out where it came from. Later.
