A Blessed and Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends!

My Quote Calendar has this one today, which is rather appropriate;

“Were there no God we would be in this glorious world with grateful hearts and no one to thank.” (Christina Rossetti)

The last couple of weeks I’ve been mulling over where to make time to write up my Linux Learning Curve experiences so that others may learn from them.

Here’s a tip that is almost too obvious to those who believe in prayer. Join a small prayer group and when they ask for personal requests, mention an item of concern in your business life. As others join you in praying for that matter, you’ll find it clears up or is resolved that very day, or in the days following.

How could I forget? I’m kicking myself!

I know it has been many weeks, even months, since I last had fast-food like KFC, but yesterday when it was offered at a special luncheon, I didn’t recall the problems such food has given me in the past. I decided to be a good sport and have some too. Only one piece, mind you,

Have you ever considered keeping a business journal? Not just for your financial transaction and banking, but a book or file on your computer that you open every day and record what decisions you are making. Come back to report the results when you have some in hand.

No doubt you are growing weary of my misadventures in Linux operating systems. I don’t want to burden you with stuff you don’t want to hear, but I think there are many out there who are doing the same thing, and desperate to find answers online, when they have a crisis, so I’m seriously considering a separate blog on my Linux Learning Curves. I just don’t know where to fit it in yet.

Another marketing method that I’ve neglected a long time is placing ads on classifieds pages. I still have one that I set up some years ago. As owner I can place ads that do not expire, whereas others have to come back and replace them every 30-60 days.

Last night, I heard this quote on the radio; “Don’t waste your sufferings.” (Warren Wiersbe). That same program was about how the greatest leaders have all had to suffer and overcome great obstacles in their lives. Someone had made a huge list, of several hundred great people, well-recognized names (albeit not all in a good sense). Then they researched their background for clues or things they had in common. Fully 25% of them came from broken or messed up homes.

I’ll just toss out a few Linux dos and don’t to give you an idea;
If a program freezes, open a terminal, type xkill and click on the stuck window. Do not just shut down the computer and reboot!
