Learn As I Do

Today I got my first pop up ad for my fresh roasted whole bean coffee. I am giving samples to people I know to try it. I think part of branding is getting people to try it. I am doing what it takes to get the word out. I am using my blog to bring awareness to my coffee. It's part of a growing process for me.

I am learning conversion rates and other marketing stuff. I took a webinar yesterday to get more information on how pop ups are good for marketing. I am also learning to find better companies that can help me bring my conversion rates into actual sales.

Something I Look For A Potential GF

One of the things I look for a GF is someone who is not jealous when I talk to women. I understand it is not easy when others find one person attractive and some insecurity issue. I don't expect my GF to be perfect. The one thing is I talk to women alot. I don't go out with every single one. I have my boundaries and so do they.

It's true that other women go past boundaries when meeting a guy, if they are not happy in their current relationships. I cannot control how other women feel about me. All I can do is keep my boundaries if they go overboard.

My Gf has to know I will be doing business with women from all walks of life. It is part of the job. I know that making time for my GF to make her feel secure in a relationship is one of the things I will be working on. I think once she finds out why I chose her and the things we share is something other women won't have in common with me.

Only she knows it and will enjoy it more than I do. I also look for someone who has business sense. Someone who works for herself and enjoys creating jobs for other people. I don't mind helping her as long as I don't move furniture.

Good Thing

I am grateful today that something good is coming in the mail. It is something I can help sis with. I got yoga in the morning with her. Our practice starts early now since the weather has been hot lately. I am happy that sis is been working on her side crow. I am still working on opening my hips more and have not done my handstand yet against the door.

Dream About My Past Job

I think it is time for me to release this memory by sharing this in my blog. I don't work for this company anymore since 1999 and of course I won't mention the name of the company. I think by letting out my frustration in writing will finally keep this dream from occurring.

I used to work for this gift shop. One of the managers that my mom knew, gave me the recommendation to work for them in starting position. Anyway, I started with one of the gift shops and that one was one of the best group of coworkers I ever had. In the 5 years I worked for them, I was transferred 3x. One was a request.

It was the last gift shop location where I had problems with. The people who were the same ethnic group did not like me one bit because I do not share their old country mentality and they all live in the City of Carson. I did my best to get along after work but it is usually the same pretentious attitude.

The sad part is they did not like the fact that my closest friends were the Chinese, Korean and Japanese people at my work. Actually I like people outside my race because I don't have to deal with the bs and formalities of trying to fit into a mold of an ethnic group.

One of my old supervisors two of them older did not like me one bit. I used to work as a part time travel agent and instead of supporting my small business, he went directly to my superior and left me high and dry. The other older supervisor accused me of not transferring on paper merchandise that was supposed to go to one of the satelite store. He blamed me and the female supervisor did not fess up that she screwed up and I was the one to blame. I guess he wanted me to be written up for it.

Anyway, the dream was about that same supervisor that blamed me for something I did not do wrong. I saw myself working for them in the same workplace. I know in real life I will never work for them. I actually quit on this job in real life. I did not like the office politics that was going around. Since 1999, off and on, I've been getting dreams about this particular gift shop.

I think by sharing this and releasing it in public view will finally let this go and I will move forward knowing that I will not look back on the what if's or why people are trying to come back from my past. There are people I will not talk to regarding my past. There is nothing for me to do with them. Nothing. They did what they did and I have things I want to work on like my advertising.

Athena

Thinking of this woman that reminds me of Athena. Much taller than me. Tall women are cool. This particular one is slowly coming into my circle. Not sure if she is ready to take me seriously in a relationship. The nice thing about dating is not having expectations and to learn more about the opposite sex. It gives me a chance to just talk and listen. Learning about someone takes time. We see things the way people are. We want to be their support in their business and their life's activities. We do need someone who will take the jump into business. Not afraid of risks. Understanding that risk is part of life. Being stagnant in a job or career we don't love or enjoy is like not watering plants when they need water. What I admire about Athena is she is constantly on the go. You see her in one place smiling and driving off to another place. It's like a bird's feather that travels from beach to palm tree. If you are reading this Athena, let me know when we go out for milk tea or coffee or chai.
