Lisa's Snippets

So I just did a really powerful exercise. To give yourself perspective, consider that 5+ years at something is considered a 'professional'

Here's what I discovered...
41 Years in brass bands, 36 Years Tech Experience, 26 Years Tech Education, 26 Years doing side hustles, 24 Years Website Creation, 6 years Entrepreneurship

One feature that is easily missed on FB is the list of 'new posts' list when you click into 'Search Facebook'.

We used to get updates of our regular friends etc in our feed and it was so easy. Now we it is kinda hidden, but we can see the latest posts of some of our recent follows by clicking into 'Search Facebook'. While it does not show everyone you would 'love' to follow, it is a way of keeping up with recent posts.

I was watching Russell Brunsons live video this morning and he showed a Napoleon Hill process for personal success called the 1357 Plan.

Inspired I wanted to know more and get the worksheet - which is only available to members. So I tried AI

This is what AI came up with, and while not what Russell was talking about is still a cool plan….

The "1357" refers to the minimum hours Hill suggested devoting weekly to following this framework (1 hour per day developing your mind + 3 hours per day applying your efforts + 5 hours per week inspiring your imagination + 7 hours per week recharging yourself). In total, it provides a personalized approach to consciously developing yourself while working towards your definite chief aim.

Often in todays world we forget to factor in recharge time, but it is something I added into my schedule when prepping for 2024…A conscious effort to make 2024 the year that I get stuff done but gone are the days of hitting the ground running and running until I collapse into bed at night exhausted!

Wear the hats of business like a boss As a startup owner we find our time divided between many tasks. Suddenly we find ourselves not only working in our business, but also on…

Before you start back for the new year, it may be a good time to refresh your computer to ensure it is running optimally for the year

Why reinstalling your computer annually is a good idea Reinstalling your computer may sound like a scary task, particularly if you have never tackled it before. You have spent quite some time…

This post is one that I have wanted to write for a while, here is the link to the article

Sorry it has been a few days, been flat out fixing computers.
Been over zealous deletingfiles on your computer? System file checker checks and repairs missing or corrupt files.
To run it [windows key]+[R]
Type sfc /scan now
Press [return]
And wait for it to complete

Lost a file you were just working on?
There are two quick ways of finding your most recent file...

[Windows Key]+E - opens windows explorer
In the left hand panel select 'Quick Access' at the top and you will see the most recent files you have been working on

-or-

tap and release the [Windows Key] start typing the name of the file (or any part of it) and the filename will appear, if it doesn't, select the Documents tab and you will be presented with the option to search for that document

Often confused are the back slash (\) and forward slash (/), its easy to see why, not only are they sort of close on the keyboard - back slash is above the enter key and forward slash is to the left of the right shift key, we confuse them more because we don't have a context for them, and seen individually we have to think about which one is which.

One easy way to figure out the different is to imagine a head and feet on them - personalise them as in the pictures below.

If the person falls backwards then it is a back slash, if the person falls forward then it is a forward slash

Understanding when to use each one is the next step in the puzzle to demystifying the difference between back slash and forward slash.

Back slash which slopes inwards is used for inside your computer... ie when accessing your locally saved files.
Just think c:\ (which refers to the first folder on the hard drive of your computer).

Forward slash which slopes outwards is used for outside your computer... ie when accessing files on a remote computer or the internet.
Just think http:// (which is what we use when accessing the internet) - which happens to be outside of our computer.
