My topic here today is why not me and why not you?


Okay, so I put this phrase out there.  I did this first on LinkedIn.  I've been thinking about it, and it was like, why or why not?  One word difference in those questions. Why or why not? but a world of difference! 
The first one questions, "Why?" "Why?"  "Why?"  The second one sees possibilities. "Why not?"  "Why not?" I'm pondering things like this as I navigate life at 50 plus. I'm on the move globally. Currently, I'm recording this from Costa Rica on the Pacific coast in the town of Quepos. And, you know, I'm trying to find my authentic self and discovering "Why not?" is a very relevant question to ask.

How AI Copywriting Software Can Help You Write Content

Words matter.  Words have power.  The words we say and reflect on impact our pysche, attitude, outlook and even beliefs.  With this in mind it is important that we have positive affirmations to reflect on.  Some call these "affirmations", others "positive manifestations", others call it "positive thinking" or "mediation reflections".  Whatever you want to call it,(I'll call it affirmations to be simple), the words we speak, think and reflect on can influence us so let's make them positive.
In this podcast I do something different and give you an 8-minute audio and written list of positive affirmations that help me, and I help can help you.
Full list here: affirmations on mikegingerich.com

Virtual Digital Mailboxes with Forwarding

You know how hectic the process can get if you have tons of work or messages to type. The better news is that you can now reduce your computer time. For example, take a scenario where most of your phrases have a shorter form. You type the short form, and the software completes the intended word or phrase. Talk of efficiency, right? That's what smart text expanders do.
FlyMSG is a text expander that allows you to create email templates and keyboard shortcuts. With FlyMSG, you don't have to spend a lot of time organizing, copying, and pasting texts and templates to CRM or other forms.
