Dreaming of Retweets?
Daily Read – Dreaming of Retweets?
Forget about sugar plums dancing in your head. Regardless of your business, we all dream of retweets, after all the value of your content is measured by the number of eyes that see your tweets and are ultimately driven to your organization. You could read all day and not cover all the ‘best practices’ for fine tuning your tweeting. In comes a cool new tool! TrackMaven, a platform that provides analysis to digital marketers performs analysis on twitter accounts (with 1,000 followers or more) and through these massive trawls through tweets has developed three suggestions you should try:
Timing. Retweets are highest on the weekend, however during the work week, lunch time saw the most retweets (12:00-1:00 ET) and again 10:00-11:00pm.
Tweet Like a Teen. Don’t be afraid of showing your emotion using tactics the average 14-year-old would be comfortable with. Up to nine exclamation marks…

Who Is The Person That You Want To Be?
Check out this fantastic re-mix by Rebecca Gray.
One of the phrases that I have heard Diane Gossen say a million times over is: “If it’s not fun, it’s not Restitution!”
Restitution is all about learning, and brain research tells us that Diane is right – we learn best when what we are being taught has an element of fun to it.
To that end, I re-wrote the words to the song, “If You’re Happy and You Know It” to introduce the idea of internal motivation to young kids. Please feel free to have some fun with it yourself!
Who is the Person That You Want to Be?
(Sung to the tune of “If You’re Happy and You Know It”)
Who is the person that you want to be?
Who is the person that you want to be?
If you think it for a minute
Then you can surely live it
Who is the person that you want…

More love; Less trash
Have you heard the song Same Love by Macklemore? I didn’t pay attention to the lyrics the first few times, but it was a catchy tune and I liked it. When I had the chance to pay attention, i listed to the words of the song, And I cried. My kids were in the jeep with me and wondered why I was crying, so I explained it to them.
The message of Same Love are the messages that need to be spread. Unlike some songs we hear by artist that I find spread more and more trash, acceptance of manipulation and abuse (such as …Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, But that’s alright because I like the way it hurts, Just gonna stand there and hear me cry, But that’s alright because I love the way you lie, I love the way you lie…DISLIKE)
Spread love.
Same Love: ❤
When I was in the third grade I thought that I was gay,
‘Cause I could draw, my uncle was, and I kept my room straight.
I told my mom, tears rushing down my face
She’s like “Ben you’ve loved girls since before pre-k, trippin’ “
Yeah, I guess she had a point, didn’t she?
Bunch of stereotypes all in my head.
I remember doing the math like, “Yeah, I’m good at little league”
A preconceived idea of what it all meant
For those that liked the same sex
Had the characteristics
The right wing conservatives think it’s a decision
And you can be cured with some treatment and religion
Man-made rewiring of a predisposition
Playing God, aw nah here we go
America the brave still fears what we don’t know
And God loves all his children, is somehow forgotten
But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago
I don’t know
‘Cause I could draw, my uncle was, and I kept my room straight.
I told my mom, tears rushing down my face
She’s like “Ben you’ve loved girls since before pre-k, trippin’ “
Yeah, I guess she had a point, didn’t she?

I don’t know
And I can’t change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
And I can’t change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love
My love
My love
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
If I was gay, I would think hip-hop hates me
Have you read the YouTube comments lately?
“Man, that’s gay” gets dropped on the daily
We become so numb to what we’re saying
A culture founded from oppression
Yet we don’t have acceptance for ’em
Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board
A word rooted in hate, yet our genre still ignores it
Gay is synonymous with the lesser
It’s the same hate that’s caused wars from religion
Gender to skin color, the complexion of your pigment
The same fight that led people to walk outs and sit ins
It’s human rights for everybody, there is no difference!
Live on and be yourself
When I was at church they taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service those words aren’t anointed
That holy water that you soak in has been poisoned
When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless
Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen
I might not be the same, but that’s not important
No freedom till we’re equal, damn right I support it
(I don’t know)
And I can’t change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love
My love
My love
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
We press play, don’t press pause
Progress, march on
With the veil over our eyes
We turn our back on the cause
Till the day that my uncles can be united by law
When kids are walking ’round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart
A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are
And a certificate on paper isn’t gonna solve it all
But it’s a damn good place to start
No law is gonna change us
We have to change us
Whatever God you believe in
We come from the same one
Strip away the fear
Underneath it’s all the same love
About time that we raised up… sex
And I can’t change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
And I can’t change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love
My love
My love
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love is patient
Love is kind
(not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient
(not crying on Sundays)
Love is kind
(I’m not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient
(not crying on Sundays)
Love is kind
(I’m not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient
(not crying on Sundays)
Love is kind
(I’m not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient

TimeWise Basic Set
My first Mary Kay purchase was in April 2011. It was the TimeWise Basic Set for $88. My best friend Joanne was having her Bridal crew over for a “Mary Kay Party”. It was a fun day, I wish we would have taken a picture. We had snacks, made lots of jokes and got to try great products for free. As the Bridal host, I’m sure Joanne got some nice discounts or gifted products. There is always a treat to being the host.
By that time, I was trying out new facial products and accepted the fact that I would have to pay more than $15 in search of a good quality cleanser. I can’t remember what I started out with, but it was definitely products from Shoppers Drug Mart or Wal-Mart. I started using some of the more expensive products from Shoppers, paying up to $30 or $35 per item. Neo Strata was one that I used for a long time but my skin still didn’t feel refreshed. The moisturizer tingled a little bit when I put it on but it was really just ok. I asked friends what they were using but didn’t find what I was looking for.
It was about a month after I was using the Mary Kay TimeWise Basic set that I started to get compliments on my skin. I didn’t expect that. People would complement that I look “really great” and actually wave their hand around their face to highlight their focus of their compliment. It was really nice and helps me feel confident about being a Beauty Consultant for the product.
The TimeWise Basic Set comes with a 3-in-1 Cleanser, Age fighting moisturizer and a Matte Foundation that is a perfect match for my skin shade. Plus I got a free concealer! The TimeWise products cleanse, exfoliate, freshen and hydrate while it accelerates the skins natural renewal process. I am now a diligent user of the TimeWise Miracle Set and won’t go a day without it.
