Thanks for coming to check out the video and for helping me create a buzz with my final assignment in my social media class.
*** Please leave a quick comment on this blog*** for purpose of grading!!

This video was captured in one take, with my practicing incorporating some of my martial art poses and moves ( I was a competitive fighter for years)  into my hooping practice.

Finding my way to be a peaceful warrior.

I have a ritual of stepping into my hoop as a sacred space that increases myself awareness and at times my mind can completely empty. A moving meditation.

Still an evolution.

Please comment below!!!

This course has caused me to re access our world of time and work. As I work through creating policy of time spent on social media and develop a constancy in engagement in these social media environments, I realize the very important concept of working virtually. I have really worked on expanding myself to utilize my iphone while traveling, running a household ( that had the viral flu), and continuing my education. I could not have done it with out a virtual office. I previously wrote an article on virtual teams and tools that we use.Please feel free to check out how you too can  create a cloud solution for your document storage and share content,update your blogs and even create a podcast from anywhere.

An Introduction to the podcast and creative content added by Social Media Coordinator Allison Clark. Experiments in working less and playing more.Blurring the lines between work and play.In this episode Allison tells the story of the side picture and challenges put forward of increasing productivity and self mastery, through the imagery of hoop-dancing.I have found myself most productive when I have something to look forward too,  like a long weekend get- a- way.
It always amazed me after having my children how much stuff I could accomplish with a baby in tow.

The Pareto Principle  80/20 rule applies that time will expand to the time allowed.

The distribution shows up in several different aspects relevant to entrepreneurs and business managers. For example:

  • 80% of your profits come from 20% of your customers
  • 80% of your complaints come from 20% of your customers
  • 80% of your profits come from 20% of the time you spend
  • 80% of your sales come from 20% of your products
  • 80% of your sales are made by 20% of your sales staff[9]

Therefore, many businesses have an easy access to dramatic improvements in profitability by focusing on the most effective areas and eliminating, ignoring, automating, delegating or re-training the rest, as appropriate.”

(Wikipedia)

To utilize technology to improve our work productivity is not enough if all you do is answer non- important emails or surf the Internet.Meetings for meeting sake are the most unproductive. So, by challenging oneself to open up a small amount of time after increasing productivity with the tools like Google Apps or Calendars is not enough. I  ask myself how am I going to direct myself to fill that extra time in my schedule?

At the end of the day questioning, who would I like to spend more time with?
How would I like to develop myself?

We at Damang Media must not only write about these things, we must demonstrate them through our stories.

I hope you enjoyed this podcast, please feel free to leave a comment or post below.
