Introduction: A Quit Smoking Analogy Managing PLR hoarding seems to be a bigger challenge than it should be. First – an analogy. I supported a Quit Smoking Facebook Group for quite some time. I developed a framework for helping people to quit smoking – it had 6Ds D – Desire D – Decide D – Deliberate D – Do D – Double D – Dream The first step to quitting any addiction is one has to have the DESIRE to decide to tackle the problem.

Lessons in Managing Frustration The last two months since Twitter shut down my ads account has been a huge struggle. Only when I step back to write about it do I figure out it has all been about managing frustration. At nearly 63 years old, you would have thought I had this stuff figured out.

Well it did not feel like a meeting – it was more of a one way talk about 2018 and 2019. Of course it is hard to run a family meeting on a webinar platform even if you have someone fielding questions (Dean did not).

There are some good developments coming along that will add to a more streamlined and simplified Internet...
