successful.

My friend shared this article posted on the Business Insider and found myself nodding and having a major check-in when looking over these points.

My biggest fear in life is being bored (or being boring)...the road to success is tough, but based on the taste of it I've had so far, so worth it.

You have to do the hard things. 

You have to make the call you're afraid to make.
You have to get up earlier than you want to get up.
You have to give more than you get in return right away.
You have to care more about others than they care about you.
You have to fight when you are already injured, bloody and sore.
You have to feel unsure and insecure when playing it safe seems smarter.
You have to lead when no one else is following you yet.
You have to invest in yourself even though no one else is.
You have to look like a fool while you're looking for answers you don't have.
You have to grind out the detials when it's easier to shrug them off.
You have to deliver results when making excuses is an option.
You have to search for your own explanations when you're told to accept the "facts."
You have to make mistakes and look like an idiot.
You have to try and fail and try again.
You have to run faster even though you're out of breath.
You have to be kind to people who have been cruel to you.
You have to meet deadlines that are unreasonable and deliver results that are unparalleled.
You have to be accountable for your actions even when things go wrong.
You have to keep moving towards where you want to be, not matter what's in front of you.

platforms.

There are a couple of questions I get asked on both a weekly and/or daily basis. 

The first is usually, "when do you sleep?" (the answer, lots of naps)

The second has to do with social media. 

A lot of my peers involved in various realms of work, especially the arts, are always asking me, "I just don't know what to post. How can I use social media to help me?" 

It can be overwhelming - there are over a hundred different social media platforms available, and countless post-production programs for video, audio and photo projects for content (which then we want to share on the social platforms). 

It's frustrating to research how to use these programs and teach yourself. And at some point, you need to be tweeting more than photos of your lunch from our Instagram feed.

That's where I come in.  

Got questions about social media, editing, blogging or anything else techie? Let's chat. 

Feel free to email me anytime at plfavro@yahoo.com and tell me what you want to know. 

I'll create a custom and personalized plan to fit your needs and meet one-on-one (or with your team) to teach you how to put these technqiues in place and make sure you feel comfortable. 

Looking forward to this next chapter!
