It is easy to look down one path on the journey as an Internet Entrepreneur and think it is the right one. It is easy to follow the “rules”. What is not easy is to look down the path and see that you might be wrong and things need to change.
This morning I woke up, yet again on the couch. Normal people sleep in their nice comfy beds, I should sleep in my bed even though my couch is SO comfortable. Yet, today wasn’t the first time that I woke up and there just “happens” to be something useful and motivating to me on the television. Now it wasn’t some awesome miracle product available on an info-commercial…it had to do with my writing or photography. Today it was … continue reading.

Writing
I do rely on spell check quite a bit when I am writing content and articles for my own and others Internet projects, but there are some things that it won’t catch and one of them is homonyms, which are words that sound the same but have different spellings and different meanings. It is important to choose the correct word to communicate what you are saying. Here is some help for a few of them:
TO, TOO, or TWO?
- To-directional. ex: Let’s go TO the store
- Two-the number. ex:we went to TWO stores, Walmart and Target
- Too-means also. ex: Wait, I want to go to the store, TOO.
THERE, THEIR, or THEY’RE?
- There-location. ex: I am going over THERE to hike.
- They’re-they + are. ex: THEY’RE going to hike that canyon.
- Their-they own something. ex: It is THEIR property that we will hike on.
KNOW or NO?
- Know-to have knowledge. ex: I KNOW how to do it right.
- No-opposite of yes. ex: NO, that is not the right way to do it.
WRITE or RIGHT?
- Write-to put words on paper. ex: I love to WRITE articles
- Right-the opposite of wrong. ex: I made the RIGHT choice to start my own business.
Even if you don’t write for a living, it will help with communicating online and texting.

51 Day Challenge,
Milestones
The best part of the 51 Day Challenge was finishing it today! I felt the need to complete it and every time I wanted to post on my blog, I felt the obligation to finish my challenge even though I’m sure no one else really cared! I knew I needed to finish it because I started it. so I did it for myself. Just finishing the challenge was the biggest challenge for me.
It is a BIG relief to have it done. It is also motivating me to finish other unfinished business on my many Internet projects. I feel like this opened up the doors to get my other Internet projects going again.
Look out Internet…here I come!
