Power your Social Media with Content from RSS

One of my most cherished maxims is ‘Einstein’s Razor’ which says ‘things must be made a simple as possible but no simpler’. Along with that I usually say something to the effect of ‘never use two tools where one will do’ or ‘use exactly as many tools as you need and not a single one more’. These ‘guiding lights’ are the reason why I use HootSuite as my social media ‘command center’. If you are someone looking to simplify your social media workflow I highly recommend it as a ‘Swiss Army knife’ of social media. Here’s one of the reasons why…

There may be other tools that handle RSS feeds better — Feedly, Digg and Feedsource come to mind as solutions for some users — but if you’re looking for a single tool that does it all, try HootSuite. Most users will do fine on the free version, but if you need to add more than 5 social networks or you’re lucky enough to be part of a social media team, you’ll need the Pro version!

Gratitude

Ummm. I want this on MY blog! Happy Thanksgiving, Q3L!

Kristin Barton Cuthriell

Gratitude

“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.” -Eckhart Tolle

“Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

“One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.” – Carl Jung

“With a grateful heart you don’t have to search for happiness. You will find it all around you. For it is gratitude that clears the fog that covers the magic in life. With the fog lifted, you will see things, wonderful things, that have been there all…

We are part SPIRIT and part HUMAN!

Mastin Kipp writes:

Triggers happen.

They do.

There’s nothing we can do to stop them – because it is through our triggers that we learn about ourselves.

I still get triggered. Someone says something. Someone does something. Something happens.

BOOM – nice Mastin is GONE and triggered Mastin shows up.

It’s inevitable.

I’ve come to believe that the journey is really about seeking the peace within the chaos – the Truth within the trigger.

Life is not about NOT being triggered. Life is about bringing LOVE and AWARENESS to our triggers and moments when our emotions come up.

You see, a lot of people I know make the mistake of shooting for a “spiritual bypass” – where they try to deny their humanness, they try to deny their emotions, they try to put their negativity and triggers in a box and then pretend they don’t exist.

And then – over time – they stack up – and BOOM – you have a breakdown, an emotional explosion or other expression.

Having these moments doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It means you are human.

via We are part SPIRIT and part HUMAN!.

Me? I believe we are ALL spirit on a human journey but that Mastin’s words are wise and bring healing…

No one would sleep that night, of course

Just a few moments ago, I took the dog out and looked up at the stars and was blown away by what I saw. This is so true, David…

Live & Learn

“Ralph Waldo Emerson once asked what we would do if the stars only came out once every thousand years. No one would sleep that night, of course. The world would create new religions overnight. We would be ecstatic, delirious, made rapturous by the glory of God. Instead, the stars come out every night and we watch television.”

– Paul Hawken
