My good friend and smart woman, Beth Osisek recently gave me a coffee mug for my birthday that reads, “Women are like tea bags. You never know how strong they are until you put them in hot water.”
Well, let me tell you, I’ve been in hot water this week! I have learned a most challenging (but needed) lesson. About 7 days ago, I woke up early one morning to do some work on my computer. I went downstairs, got my coffee and sat down ready to do some creative work. Guess what? My laptop hard-drive was dead, died, gone—never coming back. Guess what else? I had not been a very smart woman when it comes to backing up all of my files. I have spent the last 7 days sweating out the possibility that I may have lost most of my valuable information.
Ladies, don’t make the same mistake! Back up those files! Hit the Save button! I just learned this afternoon that most of my files have been retrieved. I got lucky this time. There will not be a next time. I bought a new backup system today and you can bet that I will be using it.
It’s important to know what to save and what to let go of in life. If you are curious about what we should let go of, be sure to read my article today.
Be well,
Joy
PS. We had a fantastic turnout at my Creating The Spark teleseminar last week. Everyone who registered for the call should have received their .mp3 and transcript now. Watch future News & Events in my ezine because I think we'll do this again!
