Allow me to preface this blog post...I never sit at a table to create, haha!!! I use my smartphone and/or laptop in front of the TV while watching CNBC or Bloomberg TV....and occasionally create while listening to hip-hop of the Trap Music variety as well the Kaskade/Rony Seikaly type of music. I just like the image projected from the picture above :-) *smile*
Anyways...shout-out to all those that read my blog! Let's elevate the collective! Oh yeah....on to the motivation:
Minus the darkness of people using ad blockers (I use adsense, nothing crazy with fill the whole page ads)...and that slowly becoming the norm all credit be to Apple with IOS9. 6-months after launching a couple versions of my blog/website I was able to add adsense. After the first 60-days I was not sure if I could even recoup the yearly domain fee.
However, I stayed the course (Growing my twitter following, increasing my blog posts, increasing my engagement with non Iceberg Gem content) much like the stock market and tweaked as need be through the ups and downs in order to reach my next goal. Granted a small accomplishment several months later, but my monthly accomplishments became daily accomplishments. Rinsing and Repeating as I type! Hustle! Hustle! Hustle!
