Determined To Succeed

In the original “Ghostbusters” movie, the Ghostbusters hire Jeannine, an admin to make themselves look more like a legitimate business. At first she doesn’t do much of anything. She sits around doing not much of anything (because at first no one takes the team seriously) until one night they get a call and bust a ghost.

It is then Jeannine stands up proudly and yells “We got one!!!!!”

Well, my friends, I got up this morning to a pleasant surprise – my first listener rating on iTunes.

I got one! My first bonafide iTunes listener.

I am really excited. First, it is exciting that my latest Determined To Ducceed podcast, Episode Four, uploaded to iTunes correctly as I had been having problems. But when I checked to see if it was there I found someone had found and listened and commented. Third, they liked me. They really liked me.

Even if the comment had been negative I would have loved it just the same. Why? Because I always love feedback. I do. It helps me grow and it helps me figure out different topics for the podcasts and make them better for the listener. So keep those comments coming – both here on the blog/website as well as on iTunes.

Not to mention the added benefit of this – that it helps motivate me to be strong today if I am faced with foods that are not good for me. Knowing that I am helping people is part of that covenant to each other to help us both be good, and I will be today. Thank you, and thank you to all who take the time to not only read my daily blog but post a comment. I can’t tell you what that means to me.
