Vitamin-Sea

My goodness I am officially sunkissed and so very relaxed. Everyone needs a bit of vitamin-sea every once in a while. Lying in the sunshine, soaking up those rays, reading and enjoying time. Seriously when was the last time I wasn't having a constant battle with time?! Reading a whole book has been glorious! This holiday has let me what quality time with my not-so-little sister, some time away from technology and time to really relax. Spending time with my family is so important to me, and it's lovely to have the opportunity to do so! Anyway, two more things I cannot recommend these enough.... Majorca - Amazing place, weather was lush and just a great, friendly place to relax. Baby Doll - this book is SO GOOD. It really is a must read. The main point of this waffling on was to encourage you all to take some time for yourself. Treat yo'self! Sure, it doesn't have to be a holiday, just take an hour a week to spend time with those you love or time for yoursel

Pooling your resources

Ive spent years building up my relationships and connections on social media, contacts from all walks of life. University, employment, connections from recommendations, friends of friends. And every one has their own skills, recommendations and opinions. This is great. I'm sure you are all the same and have a fantastic set of connections too. So why do more people not pool their resources? If we've spent so much time and effort in building these relationships, why not utilise them? Personally I use LinkedIn to ask questions when I need some additional help or I am looking for a recommendation for software or something like that. It's such a great tool and a brilliant social media platform full of professionals. More people should ask questions, ask for assistance with how to do something or what to use. If we have a connection who has a skill we are missing why not ask them for advice or outsource? It's not a weakness, it's using your initiative!  Ta
