I tend to ignore them. hehe.<br /><br />Anyway, I agree with you Kitty. I will try my hardest to listen to my heart (and Justin's words) and put my ideas in action, the right and most productive way. This situation is not over. I will come back to it soon. This is all a learning experience and I hope to carry your and Justin's advice to my own personal life. Thanks.<br /><br />ChristinaLady Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16099579583500220322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615114803212254957.post-28498174193309538282010-03-31T18:38:48.616-04:002010-03-31T18:38:48.616-04:00Christina, I dropped by to thank you for your love...Christina, I dropped by to thank you for your lovely comment, got to reading your blog (happy you're back!), and appreciated your up-front honesty and introspection... I think everyone wants recognition of some positive type ... but it's also a matter of degrees, which Justin balanced very objectively. And I was happy for you that Justin replied. Even if I don't know who Justin is ... sorry about that, Justin, you seem like a good guy ... anyway, promote yourself, Christina, but with Justin's words in your ear ... and looking inside yourself for support ... I've been in a couple of situations where I thought those closest to me would be happiest for my achievements but they turned out to be the ones most envious, most problematic ... strange how that is ....Kittie Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756250649095903317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615114803212254957.post-69118178287243407602010-03-31T14:31:20.171-04:002010-03-31T14:31:20.171-04:00OMG, thank you for your response!

I did not know you were going to contact me back! :)<br /><br />I guess what is comes down to is that I should just be take and let my visionary talents shine without worrying about fame and self-recognition because that will come overtime. Everyone starts somewhere. It is just sometimes I can get too impatient and wonder off somewhere I should not be. <br /><br />I don't know why sometimes I want self-recognition, but I guess it makes me happy to see that others really think my ideas are respected. I still have a lot to learn about social media and social media marketing in general.<br /><br />Thank you so much for your response. I greatly appreciated it. <br /><br />ChristinaLady Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16099579583500220322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615114803212254957.post-41724203859725082262010-03-31T10:42:35.348-04:002010-03-31T10:42:35.348-04:00Christina: I think you hit on two major points in ...Christina: I think you hit on two major points in that last paragraph.<br /><br />1) "What I do envy, however, is the self-recognition and support that these people get on a daily basis."<br /><br />What you see as recognition and support, some of these people see as a smothering unreality that prevents them from having meaningful discussions with most people. I've seen Justine go web-silent when she's home in Pittsburgh, just so she can go out for a cup of coffee without being besieged by strangers who think they "know" her from watching her online.<br /><br />As for support, it's easy to get when people already idolize you; it doesn't mean they're seriously considering your ideas so much as they're rubber-stamping them.<br /><br />2) "I just want to be known for my visionary talents."<br /><br />If that's the case, then be a visionary. Apply your talents. Become known for your actions, and you won't have to worry about becoming known for anything else.<br /><br />Having a revolutionary POV or a game-changing idea is great, but unless it's actuated, it's just an idea. The people I mentioned in my post, and hundreds more, are known and respected because they took their ideas and made them work.<br /><br />Even Justin Bieber. *cough*Justin Kownackihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01740957525126258260noreply@blogger.com
