I’ve set my goal to be an A List Blogger. “In absence of clearly defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily acts of trivia.” Author Unknown

I intend to work at this with all I have. I may have some things that can hold me back, my health being the biggest obstacle, but I can and will make a way around the difficulties that can occur. I know that everyone has problems. You can either face them, ignore them or give up.

I don’t give up, that’s not an option. I don’t ignore the issues I have because that would cause me more grief in the long run. I face them and find solutions. I try to prepare posts in advance and keep them in draft so that I can publish them if I am sick. I also have a good support system in place who can do guest posts for me if need be. Most important of all, I try to keep as healthy as possible by watching what I eat, taking my medications and keeping my doctors’ appointments.

I’m learning how to improve both my blogging and my internet presence by joining forums and taking part in online conferences. I also use Twitter to make connections and stay informed of the latest trends in blogging and the news of top name bloggers.

One thing I’ve learned from a recent conference from Lynne Terry was digital footprints. She wrote a post, Social Media (A Warning) about it. This is where I am going to be doing a great deal of work, changing how I use Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.

So, watch out blogging world, here I come!
