Thoughts at the End of Another Year...

As the end of the year approaches, we begin to think of the days that have passed.  We think about the good moments, the bad moments, the sad moments, and the happy moments.  Most of the time, hopefully, the good outweighs the bad.  But it is a good time for reflection.

Questions I have been asking myself lately are, have I been using my time wisely?  Going forward, how can I better utilize my time so that I don't feel like I'm wasting so much of it?  Being unemployed, it is easy to fall into a sort of laziness - I'm looking for jobs of course, working on my jewelry (not as much as I would like to though), and applying for freelance jobs.  So I'm not frittering away my time, but I feel I could be more productive.  My biggest achilles heel is marketing myself and though I don't usually set New Year's resolutions, I am going to this New Years.  My resolution?  Get out there and promote and market my businesses.  Learn everything I can about marketing, promotion, SEO, and networking.  I'm good at what I do, now I just have to let everyone else know too!

During your reflections for the past year, what is the main question or questions you've been asking yourself?  How have you been answering them?

I look forward to reading your thoughts!  Have a great New Year's celebration everyone!!
