Today was a day full of positivity and fire. I thought I was going to conquer the world today, by finishing all my weekly tasks I had planned out. Turns out I was super busy running errands for the cafe and meeting with my business pals for some ridiculously productive meetings, that I could only accomplish 2 tasks off my weekly list. I trained and up-skilled myself with a national champion in my industry. I look forward to crushing those tasks tomorrow. https://facebook.com/groups/askneilw

Wow what a day it was. So much done, and feeling great for it even though I am still feeling crappy from this cold. But the show must go on, and the driving force that gets me through my day, is my task list on my whiteboard. These tasks are directly linked to each of my goals that I want to achieve by the end of the 2018 calendar year. I am going to post a pic of what my whiteboard looks like on my facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/askneilw/

Today was an incredible day. Funny how yesterday was crap, and after getting motivated, everything just kept getting better and better, spilling on to today. I discussed the social strategy plan that I was working on today, and I will be posting it to our Facebook page for you to see, use and share. The link to our page is https://www.facebook.com/groups/askneilw/

Not feeling the best today. This cold is kicking my arse, and I have no motivation to do anything. How do you keep going when you are feeling down, depressed, or you don't have any energy?

Today was a day full of everything all crammed into 1 massive day. Started with some dancing lessons with Indie, and while this was happening I finish off a project valued at $250 from my car. Went out with the girls for lunch, and then back home for a afternoon nap. Headed back out to the city for a social media growth summit seminar, learnt some new cool shit, came home, went for a 15min power walk in the rain, 50 pushups, recorded and edited this episode, and NOW ITS TIME FOR BED TIME...

Balance. I struggle with it. I struggle to switch my mind off work, when I am with my family. Its all about discipline, and organising your time so that you are balancing all aspects of life within your day of 16 or 18 hours.

I visited my competition today. I was taking notes of everything they did well, everything they didn't do well, and what new ideas they were implementing.

I had a team member resign today from one of my businesses. Have you had members of your team resign or move on from your business? How does it impact you emotionally? Is it stressful? Does the suddenness of the loss make you angry? Are you worried about training another replacement?

As promised I have recorded, cut and mixed an intro for my new podcast. Favourite this channel if you like it :)

In this episode we briefly talk about optimising social media, and a brief introduction to podcasts, and what I have learnt to optimise my podcast profile to get more listeners. Check this out: https://support.anchor.fm/hc/en-us/articles/115001181191-Building-your-audience
