Action Time: Changing domain names
August 18, 2010 by Leah · 2 Comments
One of the challenges that any business faces when changing a business name or domain name is to continue serving the existing community when the automated systems change.
That is the place that I find myself this week ….
As you may, or may not know, I’ve moved my web presence from workingsolo.com.au to leahmaclean.com. There is still work to be done on the new site (mainly some new page content and more regular blog articles) but all-in-all it is operational.
The technology that delivers you blog article updates (RSS and email delivery) has been forwarding updates from the new site to those of you that had subscribe at the workingsolo.com.au site. That will stop at the end of August.
ACTION REQUIRED: If you subscribed for updates at the old site can I ask that you head on over to leahmaclean.com and renew your subscription at the new site. You will find the links on the right hand side of the page under “Subscribe to Updates”.
If you have a question just let me know.
10 Qualities of Goal Getters
July 19, 2010 by Leah · Leave a Comment
Are you a goal setter or a goal getter?
I’ve always given much more credence to to the more active “goal getting” rather than the potentially passive goal setting. It is great to set goals, be they professional or personal, but setting them alone doesn’t get you far.
Here are what I believe to be the 10 most prominent qualities of goal getters.
1. Goal Getters have a clear idea of what they want to achieve.
2. Goal Getters push past limits.
3. Goal Getters ask for the support and assistance of others in achieving their goals.
4. Goal Getters capture their goals in writing or other physical form.
5. Goal Getters have goals that are part of a larger vision.
6. Goal Getters believe in their ability to achieve their goals whilst still grounded in today’s reality.
7. Goal Getters have a strong Personal Foundation.
8. Goal Getters ask for what they need to achieve.
9. Goal Getters use rewards and celebration to assist in achieving goals.
10. Goal Getters set themselves up to achieve.
