Flip The Switch





What are you 

waiting to begin?



What do you want 

to set in motion?



What will you need 

to make happen?



What could you 

get rolling?



If you want to 

achieve something,

get cracking and 

flip the switch.



You have a mission 

to accomplish.



And it’s now or never.









What’s the mission 

on your mind?


 

I value you + your views, 

so let’s communicate!

Dog Days Night





Ever have one of “those” days?



The no lollipops, smiles, unicorns 

or puppies kind of days.


When there are no warm 

fuzzies to be found.



And it feels like a 

dog days night because 

the dog’s howling like a wolf.



You’re spitting + sputtering 

under your breath while

you’re sliding uncomfortably 

underneath your duvet.



Ever have one of those 

yucky, unproductive days?



I have.



And it doesn’t feel good.



It doesn’t feel right, either.



After all, we were born 

to be productive.



And we were born to live 

our lives in a fruitful way.



So now that I got that 

off my chest, it’s time to crack on!







In what way can you relate?



I value you + your views, 

let’s communicate!

The GOC




There’s a whole lotta 

digital noise out there.



Digital ‘noise’?



Is there such a thing?



In the technological age 

we live in, there is.



And it’s loud.



(The volume continues to 

slide upwards, as well.)



Every one wants to be 

heard inside the GOC 

(Global Online Community).



So how do we keep our 

honest thoughts, opinions

and points-of-view in check?



Through quiet, kindly, 

respectful + friendly discourse.



I think this is the way to 

engage in our digital world.

 


If we can function like this, 

we’ll be able to keep 

the ‘noise’ down.

 


AND become an asset to the GOC.




What tip can you offer 

to help others be

an asset to the

Global Online Community?


I value you + your views,

so let’s communicate!

Njuta 








Have you ever heard of Njuta?



(Pronounced: nyoo-ta)



It’s Swedish + it’s a verb.



It means: 



‘To enjoy deeply + intensely.

To appreciate profoundly.

To revel in life.’



And there’s no real equivalent 

in the English language.

 


What a fun find.

 


I relish discovering 

unique words to better 

express myself.



I also think we could all

benefit from practicing 

Njuta.



Because, if we experienced

this kind of inner joy



…we would view our lives

with a totally new perspective.








Name something you 
profoundly appreciate in life?





I value you + your views,

so let’s communicate!
