Jan 28, 2012 - As Much Pain A Mother Would Feel, So Would A Father
Everyone talks about how important mommy is to the kids. Mommy is everything as far as kids and parenting is concerned. Mom cleans the home. Mom prepares and cooks the meals. Mom prepares lunch boxes. Mom clears the laundry. Mom wakes the kids (and sometimes partners or spouses) in the morning. Mom is basically…bionic.

Oct 28 , 2011 - Sophie's Choice Of Slimming Down
I believe this is something most women out there are struggling with with age – rounder (sagging) bottoms. You can defy it with every single cell in your body. You can use the law of attraction to attract a firm albeit older bottom but it is going to hit you sooner and later. What is worse is that it doesn’t just happen to women who have given birth or women who are rounder overall. It is just in our genes that our butts will sag. A sad fact of life.

Oct 26 , 2011 - Identifying Goals For Your Social Media Plan (Author: Bonnie S Harris)
I love it when experts like Chris Brogan says there's no such thing as a 'social media expert' because I've always said there's no such thing as a 'marketing expert' either. Or a "public relations expert" for that matter. You might be the most educated, the most experienced 'expert' but there's no way to predict the exact combination of competitive, online, media, and economic environments facing a particular brand, company or author. So when you go about setting your goals, remember that you are probably the best 'expert' when it comes to your company...

Oct 18 , 2011 - What Psychological Trigger Are You Using In Your Writing
There are times that I am completely taken aback when reading what others are capable of. It is as if I have spent the past twelve years writing up stuff that means so little, made so little impact. I am humbled by how some people are capable of using psychological triggers in their writing to provoke either thought, emotion or action. Here are some of the things that I have noticed about how people write and convey, through words, what is in their heads.

Sep 4, 2011 - Having A Tweet Tooth
Many people initially thought the world had gone bonkers when Twitter was introduced, with some folks clearly thinking that they would rather have their toenails pulled out, one by painful one, than to join in the ‘Me Me MEEE!’ behavior of Twitter. Frankly, it is kind of true that Twitter is one of the most narcissistic tools in the world but here is the deal – it is also through Twitter that we find old friends and make new ones.

July 18 , 2011 - If You Want To Continue Writing, Don't Stop Reading
It's not that I am a fantastic writer. In fact, sometimes, I think I am far from it and can't help feeling humbled whenever a good writeup is stumbled-upon. But if people asked me what keeps my blogging going, I would say one thing. Talking to people. And reading. That's two things but they are related. A writer who stops reading or talking to people will eventually end up with a dry well.

Apr 29 , 2011 - Disconnected - Life OFFline
It's always been an irony...for someone whose work is almost completely online, I sure am not very mobile online. Why? If you are freelancer, you would know where this is heading. Who wants to take their work everywhere with them, raise your hand?

Jan 15, 2011 - Professional Writing - Perfecting The Note
Writing is a lot of singing...every single note has to be pitch perfect. Having been in the entertainment industry before, what you see on stage is merely the result of lots of hard work, training, frustration, anger, fear, anxiety, and also determination. Hence, the same goes for professional writing. While in-born talent has a lot to do with how we write, it has a lot to do with our training as well...

Jan 14, 2011 - Turning Your Blog Into One That Rocks
Most of us know that we need a blog or at least a website to survive in the dog-eat-dog online business world but let's admit it, not all of us have the time to sit down and blog quite as often as we would like to. This is when we have professional blogging services! Here is a list of things that you should check out before signing on the dotted line.

Nov 25th , 2010 - Am I Or Is My Work Tying Me Down?
A funny thing just occurred to me the other night while I was mindlessly chatting with a friend about all things frivolous and meaningless. That I am free. Let me explain what that means before everyone else jumps to the conclusion that I have been spending the last twenty years of my life tweeting and writing from behind bars.

Oct 27th, 2010 - Twitter Tricks
Although there is no proper decorum to follow when it comes to Twitter or in Twitterverse as we addicts like to call it (as in, as soon as we log into Twitter in the morning, we issue a universal 'good morning, twitterverse!'), there are things that we do online that tells people to instant unfollow us. But there are also things that we tweet about that make people say 'hang on, I think I want to hear what this person has to say'.

Sept 19th , 2010 - Staying Humble When You Are A Success Is Hard, But Not Impossible
Have you ever strove for something that you really wanted, made small goals to reach the eventual point of success, achieve it and then gloat like a millionaire (despite not being one yet)?

Have you ever felt like you were better than anyone else in doing whatever it was that you did?

Have you ever scoffed at the efforts of someone striving to do the same thing that you have done a million times over and not reach out to help them because you are afraid that they are going to be like you and be competition to you and you are going to lose your place?

Sept 6th , 2010 - Me No Yogini
I was never really into Yoga despite having seen pictures of those elegant-looking people in elegant clothing in elegant poses. It looks simple yet daunting at the same time...makes sense? Anyway, my initial take on Yoga was that it was either for insane people (all that ohm business gets seriously...weird) or they were for old people.

Aug 31st , 2010 - Hit The Ground Running
If there is one thing that my parents did teach me about life, it would be to hit the ground running. I am sure it gave them plenty of headaches, heartaches amongst the many other aches. Like throat ache from the screaming, and ear ache when I scream right back. And then there is also door ache when I slam the door in their face and hair ache as they yank my hair to incite submission. Kidding...my parents never laid a hand on me.

Aug 13th , 2010 - If You Read This And STILL Want To Be A Freelance Writer, You're Alright
Freelancing is sometimes harder and much tougher to deal with compared to the years when I was (securely?) employed as a bank's legal officer. Sure, I did not relish the idea of sulking my way to my boss' office every day but hey, if the bank wasn't doing well...is THAT my problem?

Aug 9th , 2010 - Oh, Lighten Up, Mommy
I have a big complaint...when writing parenting magazines and books, they tell you all those wonderful milky first-smile moments. They highlight the fact that you are consistently surrounded by love, how every sleepy moment is worthwhile and how your baby's first 'mommy' will make you smile for a year.

Aug 6th , 2010 - Sanity Guide For The Everyday Writer
Having been writing for the past 12 years, some people ask me, 'Don't you get tired of writing every day? How do you end up writing so much over so many years and not get bored out of your mind? How do you find topics to write about all the time?'

Well....under such circumstances, do I really have a choice? It is like asking me whether I would like a cheese sandwich or a cheese sandwich. Yes, I would LOVE to have a cheese sandwich.

July 22nd , 2010 - If it's not fun, then you are not doing it right
I love holidays and traveling and having fun and living it up to the moment and throwing caution to the wind and believing in unicorns....you know, those types of things so, it really took me by surprise one time when I took a 'holiday' with the kids to a beach-side resort and then suffer the whole experience.
