I am on twitter @tonyburgess1969 so if you have twitter I invite you to follow me there if you like. Twitter is going to be my social aggregate system during my hiatus from Facebook. There are things we post there that aren’t always related to our blogs so I wanna keep up with you. I have built lists to make it easier to find out what’s happening with you my blogging friends. So far I think it’s going to work out well. See you there good people.

Being Positive
As a generally positive person I do have my moments. But I work hard at seeing the better side of life and people. The world has enough negative energy where it can really wear on us. Having more words of affirmation would do us all good.
You have to be intentionally positive or at least fake it til you make it. This is hard for some because of prior life experience. Positive people do have the right to complain every so often because they want to effect change in their lives and community. I even complain about things, it’s just a human thing to do. Being an idealist is not easy because not everyone shares your vision of how things can be. Ones attitude about life in general informs us about where they are coming from. I heard in a movie once your attitude is the aroma of your heart so sometimes your heart has to be in a good place for you to be positive. Sometimes life hands you situations that require complaining. However I think you can complain from a positive place though.
Blogging can provide a great platform for people to share their hearts and minds. Posting positive things is fairly easy if you get into the practice of doing so. Our world is filled with great things you just have to look for them and to filter out the negative. Being positive isn’t easy, it’s a choice, its worth it.
To you my followers
Thanks for being an open minded group of bloggers who think for yourself. I appreciate you for your largely positive posts. You make it fun to be here. You rock.
My Facebook Break Challenge
The one thing about the Facebook break is getting information I could get from there from various places I am connected with. Perhaps that is something that people who do social media consulting should advise is to keep your information in more than one place like your website, blog or Twitter. Some people aren’t on Facebook by choice and will not go on no matter how much you tell them they should. Providing information, everywhere is important to keep as many people in the know as possible.

I was born in 1969 and this was one of mankinds greatest achievements. We honor those who made it happen 46 years ago. It is a shame we haven’t been back since.

Taking A Break…From Facebook
I am going to take a Facebook break. My blog, Twitter and Tumblr is where you can find me online for awhile. Too much negativity is happening on social media as of late. Social media has some positive places and I think I will go there.
