(Note: I write these down to remember and activate them on my own blog…. NOT because I am an expert or authority.)
1) Do it everyday (or at least consistently). Some people blog twice a week on the same two days. Awesome! Consistency is key. People who blog regularly [...]

…or at least that’s what I told a friend in the second grade. We’d been arguing. I don’t really remember the details, but this is close, so let’s semi-pretend.
I’d imagine the issue started with something small. It escalated with us lobbing our arsenals of typical elementary school jokes that we’d [...]

Listen. If you’re message isn’t stepping on a few toes, perhaps your vision isn’t large enough. Big dreams step on people’s toes. Outside of the box ideas step on toes.
