Not What I Planned

This week was kind of a bust for me, my day job was really intense, got the flu, or some bug, and really crappy weather and livestock feed and to care for. Too many plates in the air for me this week, so my blog is late. I did manage to watch some tutorials and review my funnels. Not the week I had planned for sure. I was stressing about all of this about mid week and realized, as long as my intentions are good and I do even a little thing for my business when all heck is breaking loose, I will get there. Still makes me stress, but life happens and sometimes you just need to go with the flow. This next week will be much better!
Still on for getting my TikTok up, a few days later than I wanted, but it going to happen, still scared but determined. I have watched a few reels and such and one of the things that strikes me is there is such a range of content and most of them are pretty short. I can work with that and way less scary for me, lol!
So, my take from this past week is that sometimes things just jam up and it is okay to take care of yourself and what needs to be done, even if it isn’t exactly what or how you want it to go. Just hang in there and don’t let yourself get discouraged.
Hope everyone has a great and productive week!
Smiles,
Kae

Hi, Kae! I can relate to beating myself up when I don’t make as much progress as planned. But I’ve learned there’s no need to do. Progress is progress, no matter the speed.
A trick I’ve learned is to write down what I do. I’m usually surprised by all I’ve accomplished, especially in those weeks I’ve hit roadblocks.
I learn I’m pretty awesome and pat myself on the back. In fact, I’ll tell you a quirky truth: I’ve given myself a nickname. I call myself “The Awesome,” do a little dance, and tell myself what a great job I’ve done. Lol!
It works wonders!
Cheers to you!

I agree any progress is good, just wish I had more energy! I will get there. I love reading your blogs! Your blogs are a great source of inspiration for me!
Hi Kae,
I know how you feel with this bug going around lately. I have been fighting allergies badly lately and it sucks! I hope you feel better soon. 🙂 The flu isn’t fun either… Don’t stress with social media. You’ll get there and it will happen. Well, I hope you have a better week this coming week.

I will absolutely get there and I have plans, lol! If I did a video chat right now I would care folks!
Have a great week and talk with you soosn!
Kae, it’s fine we just put these days and weeks down as stuff happened. It’s okay to change the plan but don’t change the goal. Just keep going it will happen. On another note you subscribed to my newsletter but you haven’t clicked the link in the second email can you please check and let me know. Have a great week, tiny tiny steps and you’ll get there. Thanks,

This weeks I’m slowed down by the gastro. It is almost impossible to do complex things. I had to postpone some of my content creation moments. I was supposed to do a TikTok video this weekend but it just didn’t happen. This is kind of frustrating when things like that happen because you know that without putting content online you are not helping your business to grow. This is part of the game I guess.

Hi Kae, hoping you’ll feel better soon.
I hope you won’t get too upset when things don’t work out.
Better to focus on taking care of yourself,
doing what you can whether it’s just reviewing videos.
I am also reviewing videos re: TikTok and like you agree that the short videos are less scary!
Look forward to hearing about how you get on with TikTok

Nice honest post. We have all been there. Just don’t let the setbacks get you down. You will find TikTok is actually quite fun. Be brave and do some fun videos
Thanks Scott! 🙂
I’m right there with you! I’m working on getting my TikTok’s up as well. I had set a goal of posting my first one last week but that came and went. This week I said I’d do it… with a little prep I think I can be off to the races! Let’s lock arms and do this TikTok together!
Kae,
I can sure relate to this post. Sometimes life just gets in the way and we can only take small steps to get things done. Hang in there and keep pushing on!

Nice to hear from you! Yes, Some weeks are more of a challenge than others. I berate myself when I feel like I am behind, but then I think, I will just take a little longer, no big deal! Still hard, but I am in for the long haul.
Have a great week!
