I wish somehow we could just ignore anything from any of those games that we are not interested in. BARF! I want to know what is on your mind, what you're wearing, eating, thinking, feeling, dreaming, imagining, where you're going, where you just went, where you want to go, you name it, I want to know and likewise I share all those same things no matter how random. From time to time I get complaints that I "post too much" or this or that, to which I make no apologies and can only say, if you don't like it then block my updates because you don't have to get my updates. I do this for me- and for whomever out there might enjoy it too and for those who don't or those who want to grow their pixel crops have at it but I don't care about that. I want to know about YOU!

Just saying.

Thank you for asking! I'll answer a bit in brief here and then I'll post a blog and vlog addressing the question more in depth! For now let me tell you as the "herself" in question that now that I've been doing this for 12 days I'm finding that yes, it IS a bit of a challenge just uploading daily content on my main accounts: Youtube, Wordpress, and Flickr. But it has already been worth in terms of accelerating my learning on how to utilize these tools to ENHANCE my life both personally AND professionally. It isn't a full time job so much in that I'm doing this for 40 hours a week since to be honest I'm having a lot of fun producing the content and I don't really track the hours I spend. What I am learning are principles that I can extend to my work, my interactions with new people, how I share value with my relationships, and ways to express myself powerfully and concisely. That alone is worth the challenge of getting stuff up for every day of the project. And the effort really isn't exhausting or taxing, just challenging. It's great fun.
