Welcome to the first post of the Blog of Angela Terga in 2024. Presenting: "Memoirs of a Mad Teacher, an episodic writing event that takes place with every blog post published.
"Do what is most important first," were the words my favorite Principal used to usher us into another 'impossible to get it all done' mission. As we left the meeting in despair deciphering what that meant for each one. Our every exhibit installation at the museum magnet (every 9 weeks), launched us into stress metastases.
This new year 2024, his words of wisdom resonate even more poignantly with his passing. It's as if life hasn't changed a bit for me in spite of having the left the professi0n. I'm still having to figure that out every day.
1. Organize Your Thoughts
I hope you have made your Vision Boards and To Do Lists in sight and on your mind. May your dreams come true this year, 2024. Think your wishes into being by feeling it. Use visualization and and practice the feeling.
This year marks a new beginning for TAT Productions as a 501C3 nonprofit private fund corporation, CAMP (Conscious Arts Media Productions). What is different in your year? What is the same? What would you life to change?
The learning curve of a new entity formation and management while product packaging and pitching, and seeking production funding, can become a health hazard very fast. Stress, we know, motivates us and also finishes us. Ask my hips. They both had to be replaced when I decided to embark in a new direction as a writer. Out of fear? Perhaps. We disease when we are not at ease.
So take it a day at a time. Set and follow an ideal schedule that includes exercise and nutrition. Pace yourself and keep track. Keep a Journal, make To Do Lists, write in your Diary.
If only we could. We've done that before and it didn't work. We lost track, got involved and lead away from your main focus. It felt good so you basked in the light. But soon you knew it was only a mirage. What to do? Look forward. Start new.
What is most important for you to do today, every moment of the day?
Three of my earthly guides have passed on to another dimension this past year. Time is of the essence, therefore, I vow to pour into this year's basket, all the wisdom and courage possibly mustered to refine the process and show its value to the world.
Why Conscious Arts? Consciousness reveals itself through art. It lets out the pain, the unfulfilled wishes, rejection, and other sufferings of the mind in a non violent way.
are healing arts that help us focus on the dream, build bridges among cultures, shorten distances, and harmonize with our environment. Media Productions are any type of publication medium disseminated into public exposure and adoption, i.e. music, film. illustrations, theatrical performances, writing.
Media entertains, teaches and sets trends inadvertently, creating separation or togetherness, understanding or confusion. It is the most important industry for the transformation of society.
Some Quick Guidelines on how to start a nonprofit
Don’t make your guide longer than 2000 words. In an ultimate guide, you also have a lot of space to use your SEO keywords. Put 2-3 keywords around in the post, in the H2 headings, and in the text itself. Add Anchors Links much like a table of contents where readers can click and go to a section of the post. To add them, click on Link in the toolbar above, select Section and select one of the headings in the post.
Heading #1: Why Is This Topic So Important?
In this first section, you set the stage for your readers. This is where you remind your site visitor, in greater detail, about the topic at hand. You can offer a brief history of the issue as well as when and how it became so popular or vital; describe the geographic location or setting if your guide is travel-focused; relay the possible mishaps that occur (or can occur) to someone who doesn’t stay up-to-date with current trends; and explain how practical implementation of your recommendations is simple.
This is your chance to get your reader excited about the guide and appreciate the real value behind reading the post in its entirety.
To boost the post's SEO, be sure to include keywords in the heading and format them as Heading 2 or Heading 3.
Heading #2: What are the Nuts and Bolts of Your Guide?
Get ready to explain everything! Start with a catchy introductory sentence or two to get the ball rolling, and then begin sharing your insights with your audience.
Decide from the start of this section if you want to write your detailed explanation of your expert guide (i.e. Parisian Restaurants or Vitamin and Mineral Supplements or SEO Steps) as a list or separate subheadings. The most important thing is to be consistent. Each entry should be clearly distinguishable and you should offer your reader concrete insights throughout.
Explain with examples and anecdotes. Try to give different perspectives so readers with different backgrounds understand. Think about your audience. Are you talking to beginners or more advanced readers? Do you need to use a more professional writing style, or a friendly and casual tone that is more relatable?
Remember that this is the largest section of your guide. Add images to make the post more dynamic and interesting, and include links from other sources or to one of your previous posts. You may want to include something personal or funny along the way to lighten the load and make the read more enjoyable.
Heading #3: Is Your Reader Feeling Empowered?
It’s time for your readers to start applying what they have begun to master. Leave your reader feeling like they learned a lot. In this last section, you can write one or two paragraphs that remind your audience what they have learned; what are the first steps they can take to apply all your advice and coaching (i.e. make reservations to the perfect restaurants in Paris for an upcoming holiday; purchase vitamin supplements or make an appointment with a nutritionist; or check their SEO search engine rankings and keywords). Provide them the needed links (can be an affiliate) to get going and encourage them to soar.
You can also remind them of other resources you have on your website as well as paid services or events that you offer. Don’t be shy. They may have more questions after reading (or in the future). Invite them to leave comments below the post so they stay engaged.
