Looking backwards and looking forwards, what did we learn from 2012 and what do we need to learn?
I got inspired once again from Lewis Howes and this time from his Top 10 Most Important Lessons of 2012 and what follows in quotes is taken from what he wrote there.
Looking back on 2012, just because things didn’t go as we planned doesn’t mean that they didn’t go well.
They just didn’t go according to our plan of what we envisioned and what we expected. They still went well.
Sometimes it’s just not as obvious to us from our sometimes limiting perspective.
This is when we need to take on a new perspective. Especially today with everythings changing and evolving so quickly. Stay and be open and unattached to outcomes.
It’s so important to have our own dreams and to not “chase other peoples dreams”. Another component to this is not taking on what other people expect you to be just because this is what they choose to see.
And this is something that’s very difficult to recognize sometimes.
“Don’t be controlled by your own fears and emotions”. Also don’t allow other peoples fears and emotions control or influence you. Sometimes we don’t even know that we’re doing this.
Other people will and do see you differently. It’s so important to stay true to yourself and to not get caught up in how other people see you and how other people expect you to be. This is more difficult to recognize and navigate through.
What does all this have to do with “Social Media Today”? It has everything to do with “Social Media Today” “The New Social Media” and the “Social Media News Today”. Because it’s all the latest and greatest version about you.
You need to stay true to yourself, your brand, your business, your company, your special interest, and your hobby.
“Social Media today ” is about you, and your interpretation of how you choose to portray yourself, your brand, your company, your special interest and your hobby.
What goal are you focused on?
“Things go good and bad yet pressing forward focused on the goal”, despite what is happening is so important. It’s so easy to follow someone else when things don’t appear to be going well for you. Stay the course though and be true to who you are.
What is working for someone else may not work for you.
In games, we don’t know sometimes who’s going to win by the ups and downs during the game. The team that stays focused and determined wins.
As long as you are staying true to you, your brand, your company, special interest and hobby you will win.
I received some questions about finding plugins to make your site and blog mobile friendly and here is what I found:
Duda mobile website builder got a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and it’s free.

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That’s right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. Seo Plugin

I’m impressed, I have to admit. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s both equally educative and amusing, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head. The issue is an issue that too few folks are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy I found this in my hunt for something relating to this.
