Putting An End To Loose Ends

Good afternoon you WAyfaring WArriors, how fare you all on this tumbleweed strewn afternoon ? The perfect day for putting an end to loose ends, in preparation for the week ahead.

I don't ever want to wish the days away, but I always get excited on Sunday, knowing that a new week is about to start.(Even if some class Sunday as the start of the week ? What's all that about)

There was a slight pause, not that you'd know, I was trying to stop the question mark jumping down onto the next line. I wouldn't mind but I know when it gets published, it will be in a different point on the line anyway.

I feel as though I have the 'Sword of Damocles' hanging above my head. One of my sons has just graced us with his presence after an extended lie. After pleasantries, he went into 'Do you know so-and-so ?' mode.

This is when your offspring happens to know (by some fluke) some of your friends from years gone by. It's not like I have a checkered past or anything, it's more that, as we have already mentioned, the past is best used as a reference book and not for bringing into the present.

It would seem that some of my 'older' friends have very good memories and can relay past events as if they were yesterday. Oh well, let's hope the sword stays where it is for now.

Rather than me regurgitating the story behind the 'sword', you can read it here, courtesy of Wikipedia.

Talking of the past, today is my good lady and mine's 23rd wedding anniversary. Proof that some 'work relationships' can stand the test of time, as that's where we met. Though it has nothing to do with the fact that she got fired about a month after we started seeing each other.

Good times indeed and another 'myth-busted' coming up. We actually enjoy working together. I know it's not for every one but I've never been one to fit nicely into the 'stereo-types' that get jumped on. There is a certain synergy, that must only come after years of working together, as we have done.

Anyway, just thought I'd share that with you.

I finished off the last few ideas on creating a 'following' in yesterday's post A Game Of Two Halves (Part Two ?) but, as I intimated at the time, there were more notes of the twenty-minute video. Actually, I've just looked up the average spoken 'word count' and a twenty-minute speech converts to approximately 2600 words. That's enough for a decent sized article, just saying.

The next part was more to do with being an 'entrepreneur', though I don't think it was intended as a blueprint. There were, however, a few nice pointers that I thought worthy of noting down. Focus on specialised knowledge, self education and mentors.

That's not a bad little lot to get stuck into. I might see if I can cobble something together for the rest of the notes as well.

For now, I have a webinar to attend, probably one of those 'never to be replayed' ones. Still, if we get something good from it, then hopefully it will be worth the hour spent watching.

Here's hoping you're having a sublime Sunday. Stay safe, healthy and happy.

Twack Romero.
