Have you been in the starting block for three months without knowing exactly what to do? Feels daunting? Frustrating? After six months, are you still there at the foot of the mountain? Friends and relatives starting to ask you questions about what you’re doing? Telling you to get real, laughing at your dreams and efforts?
Feel like throwing the towel in? To “Get Real”? Continue reading »
It’s incredible how much one discover and learn while creating PLR. It’s fun too. Another thing that I really love is that the number of visitors increases by the week. Both returning and new. What I’m concerned about is how I can engage you all, and add to your endeavor. If there’s anything you need help with that is. You might sit there and think that it is me that needs help. Of course, I don’t know everything so if you have any thoughts you want to share, go ahead. Any ideas that help me make this a better place is more than welcome. Continue reading »
Isn’t it wonderful when you think that a task would be a piece of cake only to wind up giving you a headache and eating up all your time, including time you don’t have. On top of that you’ve also been stupid enough to tell people you’re going to do this.
I happily declared that I’ll make a video on using the wonderful tool FreeMind. I intended to make one for Mac and one for Windows as they differ slightly. So I started off as a happy clown with the fabulous QuickTime’s feature of screen capturing video only to discover that I had no sound from the line in connector.
I spent an hour on the settings. It worked when I calibrated it so there’s no problem with the hardware. That felt good so I kept trying out different ways of getting sound through line in. The internal microphone picks up a lot of sounds from the fan and keyboard so the audio was unbearable. Continue reading »
It’s not seldom I see requirements announced for a specific project/task/goal/whatever. You have to be an Engineer within a specific and/or narrow area. Have a certain amount of years of experience on the actual subject or you’re not considered an engineer. You have to be a writer of a specific origin, like from an English speaking country or you’re useless and unworthy of even being a writer. You have to be certified for specific tasks on a certain system or you can’t even turn on a computer, and shouldn’t be allowed to even get close to one.
I resign, and turn my thoughts on wolves. They’re family oriented. Just like domestic dogs. But they also attack deviant behavior, turning members to outcasts. They’re territorial and kill outsiders. They kill their own puppies if they’re deformed at birth or if they don’t fit in or adhere to the behavior of the pack. They do this because that’s what their environment requires of them or they’d be extinct. Continue reading »
Many of my friends have been ranting about the poor availability of software for the Mac, the high price and the stupid user interface. Are you still with me? Then you might be as misinformed as many others. It’s common. Nobody can comprehend the vast amount of information available, so it’s only natural to defend one’s choices. Nothing wrong with that. We all do it.
A computer is not only a computer as it needs a lot of different software to allow you to do some real work. All of that drops a hefty cost on you, and the investment of both money and time can’t be recouped. Switching to a new platform often means that one have to start a new run down on investments. It’s tedious and frustrating. Continue reading »
Tired and drained in the morning? Worn out and bored by lunch? Would you like to wake up and really feel to getting up and get going? To feel able to smile and sing while doing the morning routine? Has it even gone so far as to have ditched the morning routine for an extra 15 minutes in your bed? Continue reading »

How many times have you opened a text file only to froth over the formatting? Either it’s a dense chunk of text with no returns, as in lacking a new line, also related to as full stop, end-of-line, end-of-paragraph or something else. Or it’s waaay to many empty lines between the sentences or paragraphs. Continue reading »
