Brains Without Boxes!

I used to be one of those people who thought that it was really no big deal to tell a little white lie. Then I had an experience which made me think that it’s a whole lot better to just tell the truth.

The situation wasn’t even that big of a deal really. I had gone to my boyfriend’s mom’s house for dinner and she had showed me the new camouflage bedding that she’d gotten because her other son had just joined the army. I thought it looked hideous but told her that I liked it. Little white lie.

A few months later, she shows up at our house with custom bedding for every bed in our home. She had decided to get personalized photo blankets of her military son and the rest of the family all done up in camouflage coloring. And she expected it to stay on our beds.

For months, I was surrounded by bedding I couldn’t stand until finally I decided that enough was enough and I was taking it down. Of course, that’s when she dropped by for a visit. And I had to say that the bedding was out at a custom cleaners. And when she came over for dinner the next week, I had to say that I hadn’t had time to go to the cleaners yet which was why the bedding wasn’t back on the beds yet.

Oh how I wished I’d just told her from the beginning that I didn’t like it. Imagine what trouble some of my other white lies might get me into!

The majority of people who are involved in doing SEO for their websites or businesses are going to start with doing general SEO and then move on to doing local SEO. For example, someone working in an Orlando beauty shop would first optimize the site with general beauty information and would then move on to doing Orlando Search Engine Optimization.

But what if that’s not the way that you handled things? What if you did the Orlando SEO first and now you need to start expanding from that to a site that’s going to get attention on the national level? Don’t worry, it can be done.

The first thing that you’ll want to do is to go back and start optimizing the site with attention to the keywords and links that are going to be most important to the topic of the site. In the above example, you would go back and focus on the optimization of everything on the site related to beauty services. Some of this has probably already been done in the local SEO so it’s not difficult.

Once that’s complete, you can move on to doing local SEO for nearby areas to further expand the reach of your site. In this case, you might focus on Tampa web marketing or Miami SEO to get attention from other Florida areas.

It isn’t easy to pick up the pieces of your life when you have just gone through the break-up of a relationship. The worst part is that you know that you’re going to feel better eventually but you can’t do anything about how bad you feel now.

Or maybe you can. Sometimes it helps just to get yourself out of the house and to do something nice for yourself. If you can find something that makes you feel pampered and pretty again, you might speed up the recovery time for your heartache.

Here are some quick pick-me-up ideas for getting you over the hump of a break-up:

• Spa days with the girls. Or even alone. Let yourself be spoiled with a day at the spa, a nice massage and a long soak in a Jacuzzi.
• Beauty things you’ve been putting off. If you haven’t gotten your hair cut in awhile or your nails are looking raggedy, now is the time to make those appointments.
• Beauty things that you’ve always wanted to do but never did. If you’ve always wanted to get Washington DC cosmetic dentistry, a break-up can motivate you to call the dentist DC offices and ask about those Washington DC dental services.

The truth is that it’s going to take time to get over your broken heart. In the meantime, though, you may as well do things for yourself that make you feel a little bit better.
