What makes a blog abnormal?

Disney Customer Service Speaker jeff noel
Two weeks ago, for posterity.

 

Have you ever been accused of being weird?

This blog isn’t normal.

Why?

Because this blog is the first of five daily blogs and is a gateway to four other blogs, each one interconnected horizontally.

This is difficult for people to understand.

Why?

Because no one does it this way.

This one is about mind and it connects to body, which connects to spirit, which connects to work life, which connects to home life.

Scrolling vertically, which is our normal behavior, will allow you to read this blog chronologically.

But here’s the unique feature embedded at the end of each individual post. It looks like this:

Next Blog

When a person navigates vertically (scrolling down) there’s never a need to click on the hyperlinked and bolded word Blog.

But here’s how that unique ‘thing’ comes to life – you click on the bolded, hyperlinked word and you automatically navigate horizontally.

Try it…

Next Blog

Unfamiliar?

At the end of each post is an opportunity (easy hyperlink “Next Blog“) to scroll horizontally to the next website and blog. There are five differently themed posts about balance.

We have these moments in life that surprise us at first

Book price reduction went live yesterday, April 6, 2015. Dropped to $10.99 from $19.99 at author’s request.

 

The following is from two nights ago…decided it is blog worthy today…

Typing this in the dark.

We have these moments in life that surprise us at first but then they don’t.

Lying in bed right now, on this Easter Sunday night, a moment.

And the thing is, our little moments are insignificant to the rest of the world.

But they astonish us.

Six years ago, couldn’t write my way out of a wet paper bag.

But started writing anyway.  And as a result, in just five more days, the 11,000th blog post will go public.

Relish your insignificant moments, because no one else will.

But that doesn’t mean your moment isn’t significant.

It is.

And use your moment to create more moments.

It’s easier to quit when we are disappointed

When it comes to shaping our attitude, the long way is the short cut.

Take this blog (and the other four Mid Life Celebration blogs) for example.

Many bloggers begin writing because they believe:

“If you build it write it they will come”.

Everyone who’s ever blogged knows this is a lie.

The bloggers who continue to write (in spite of the lie) well past a reasonable amount of time discover something.

It’s not an audience we write for, we write for ourselves. Because we need the writing. For ourselves.

A writer, probably, will stop writing when she no longer needs it.

You’ll be the first to know.
