Been sitting in front of the screen for hours now doing what I assume is "research". I have finally realized that I HAVE to get more savvy in this social media age. While I do have a website, I am in the midst of shifting it around so am re-wording many aspects of it along with feeling the NEED to change the whole look of it all. To this end I have been perusing a ton of different websites to see what resonates for me and what doesn't.
What am I wanting to convey through my site? How can I move some aspects of me to another website venue as I have a number of different paths I can take with respect to my "work". To that end I have expanded a smaller aspect of my initial site and allowed it to branch off on its own with a whole different offering out in the world.
I remember when I first starting working on my website a number of years ago it felt so liberating. However at the time I was not all that tech savvy (not that THAT has changed much) but at least now I do understand the necessity of getting the word out and networking. Was talking with a friend about having a short story to explain what it is that we do so that it not only makes sense for those with whom we share but, more importantly, feels in alignment with what makes sense for us. A mission statement kind of thing.
For a Doctor or a Lawyer, a salesman or an actor - they can articulate easily with the simple word - Doctor, Lawyer, Salesman, Actor. For someone who is a Holistic practitioner and an Intuitive it can be a tad more confusing so all the more necessary to be able to articulate your craft in a way that brings people in, with a desire to know more. For many of us, this can be a challenge until you finally realize that this is your purpose and needs to be out there for the benefit of those in need.
I am excited again at the prospects available to me, now that I am ready to get myself out there once more, doing what I do. For the past 5 or 6 years I have been having a hard time getting out there, so to speak. I didn't seem to have the energy to network or promote me. That has changed recently and I am more than ready to begin...AGAIN.
I made a reference on Facebook today to being in my "wise woman years" and this is so true. I have gifts that have come to me over the years and now I can honestly say I have learned much all these many years traversing the earth plain.
Life feels good. I feel good.
May you all feel the blessings gleaned from a life well lived...
Namaste
