Social Media is a Bunch of CRAP!
A lot of people do nothing but waste their time with Social Media. I mean think about it for a second. Typing on Twitter that “I just ate a dill pickle.” Who gives a crap! Get a life! People on Facebook send me all kinds of Gifts, Farmland pieces and Mafia War stuff. Once again, who gives a crap people! People on Youtube making videos about the “Most Useless Facts!” I don’t have time for this CRAP and neither should YOU!
Social Media Crap!
All around us we hear the doom and gloom about the economy. I hear it all the time “I don’t have enough money”, “I don’t have enough time with my “JOB”, the kids and everything I have to do all day.” But you have enough time to sit there and tell someone you just ate a Dill Pickle? Give me a break!
We currently live in a New World Revolution. Opportunities are all around us and you are not willing to step up and take advantage of it. Now I’m not talking about getting in to a business and start using social media to SPAM people on the internet. Because that technique doesn’t work and once again it’s a bunch of crap! You truly need to understand technology and understand how you can position yourself TODAY to take advantage of this opportunity we have in front of us.
When was the last time you picked up a good book that could change your life? Just reading 10 pages of a good book, reading an excellent blog post, listening to positive audios rather than music could have a major impact on your current situation. But when was the last time you did any of these things?
Dawn and I just finished an excellent book called “Outliers” by Malcolm Gladwell. In this book Malcolm Gladwell talks about how it takes 10,000 hours of being in the right position to achieve massive success. What are you doing right now in your 10,000 hours that is going to secure yours and your family’s future? Working hard at your job making your boss rich or doing something to improve yourself?
We have four plus businesses with multiple location, go to our Networking meetings at least twice a week, build our blog, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube and other social media sites, read great books and audios, walk the dog, exercise, take time with the family, help our girls with school functions and handle everything that life throws at us. And you don’t have enough time with your busy schedule. Give me a break! We are all busy but what are you busy doing? Get a life! Speaking of that, one of my favorite authors is Larry Winget. Want to read a good book that’s wake up call? Read Larry’s book “Shut Up, Stop Whining & Get A Life!”
I know this post is getting a little long but this is some good stuff! Nobody is going to change your life but YOU! The government isn’t going to bail you out if you are loosing your home. Your company doesn’t care about how this latest round of layoffs impacts your family. You need to take care of yourself and the time is now!
Social Media is the NEW Information Revolution if you position yourself correctly. Take a look at these stats and how long it took to become the norm. Radio 38 years, TV 13 years, the Internet 4 years, and the iPod 3 years to reach 50 million users–while Facebook reportedly added 200 million users in under a year. Think social media isn’t powerful when used correctly?
Have you ever really wanted to be at the right place at the right time but it just never seems to happen. Imagine walking in to that convenience store and having that hunch to buy that lottery ticket. Using Social Media properly could be that winning lottery ticket and the biggest shift in wealth since the industrial revolution!
So what are you doing when you use social media? Are you sharing information like “I just ate a Dill Pickle?” or are you positioning yourself to take advantage of what we have in front of us? It’s all up to you and your future depends on what you are doing right now at this very moment! Do you want things to change? Then you had better wake up and think about what you are doing or should I say, What You Could Be Doing!
Here’s an excellent video to prove my point. This new video is based on Erik Qualman’s book Socialnomics. socialnomics.net You may have seen it before but it’s still a great wake up call.
Get in the Game and start changing your future. If you are not sure how, hit us up somewhere and we’ll see what we can do to help you. But do me a favor in the process, Shut Up and Stop Whining about what you don’t have! Because in the end, it’s all YOUR FAULT!
