First off, just a couple of quick housekeeping things here at Today is that Day, and then I’ve got a link for you that you’ll want to check out.
Newsletter
The last time that I talked about the Today is that Day newsletter, I had decided temporarily to manage it myself. However, I’m happy to say that so many of you have been signing up for the newsletter that I’m having trouble keeping up with the administrative side of managing the list! 🙂
To keep the newsletter a fun and useful concept that doesn’t keep me from taking care of other important tasks, such as creating content for this blog, tending to PDP, and building the Wealth Creation for Superior Living podcast, I have decided to embrace technology and use a service that helps me to handle the administrative side of running a good newsletter.
I’ll still be writing the content, of course, but the day to day tasks of adding people to the distribution list, dealing with bounced emails, etc., are now going to be handled by 1ShoppingCart, a service that I highly recommend, by the way. I have used them in the past, and there “techno toys” are truly awesome if you have a newsletter and/or have products or services that you offer on the Internet.
So, for anyone who is already a subscriber to the Today is that Day newsletter, or who wishes to be (free stuff and discounts – YAY!), you can make sure that your subscription is processed accurately by simply putting your first name only and your email address into the new form found on the newsletter page. Privacy guaranteed, of course.
p.s. – This also means that I will be setting up an affiliate program for the Today is that Day products, so keep an eye open for that.
About this Blog
Apparently I need to read my own writing a bit more often, because it was recently pointed out to me that the “About this Blog” page had a few things on it that were woefully out of date!
The general concepts behind the Today is that Day blog are the same as they have always been, but I’m one of those “rolling with the punches” kind of guys, and my life’s circumstances tend to change rather drastically from time to time.
For anyone who has never read the About this Blog page, please feel free to do so at this time, as it is a brief read that does a great job of explaining just what goes on here.
p.s. – To that one heckler from the 3rd row? Yes, I AM aware that central Florida is NOT on the east coast. Sheesh…
Quotable Quotes
And finally, if you are sick of hearing all of the same tired old self improvement dogma repeated over and over and over again, now is your chance to put your money where you mouth is!
Rich Ezzo over at MysteryMoney has started a very cool project where people get to submit what THEY think are great quotes. All of the submitted quotes will ultimately be compared, talked about, slapped around, beat up, beat down, and then put in a washing machine on spin cycle. Any quotes that survive all of that will make the Top 10 list and become:
The Best “New” Quotes of all Time!
VERY cool stuff, Rich! Click on over there to check it out, everyone. Also, while you’re there, be sure to add that post to Digg, Stumbleupon, Mixx, or your favorite social networking website. This is a project worth getting the word out about!
p.s. – Rich is also looking for a few good judges to grease the wheels and share the news. If you are an author or a blogger with a positive outlook on life and a large reach in the community, contact Rich through his site about possibly taking part in this awesome project!
Who knows? If the whole thing ends up on Oprah, you could be one of the judges who helped set the stage for the NEW self improvement vocabulary!
