I Will Miss You, But it's Time For Change

I Will Miss You,  But it’s Time For Change

We’ve all heard it said that there is an end to all things and I suppose this is a correct statement.  Sooner or later all things do end; some sooner than we expect.

I’ve been going over and over the planning of this blog article, trying to figure out just how to begin and what to say. I suppose the best way is to just jump into the deep end, so here goes.

I am pretty much calling it quits with Patti’s Place, this blog and the Facebook blog, especially the Facebook end. I may occasionally return here to write a spiritual or personal article, I’m not really sure at this point. I won’t delete them and I’ll leave them both up since there is a lot of what I hope and believe is useful information and encouragement.


This decision comes after much prayerful consideration; it’s not a hasty decision by any means.  Let me say right here that I have really enjoyed the endeavor and I have made some friends that I will always consider my friends even though we may never meet on this earth.

My reasons? I have spent countless hours, days, weeks, months and yes; even a few years working on Patti’s Place. I have learned much, shared much and tried very hard to reach people with good. I would like to think that in some way, I have succeeded in that.  

However, I know in my heart that it’s not my real purpose in life and I have finally had to admit that working on the blog, spending all those countless hours scouring the net and sharing, has seriously taken me away from what I know is my purpose in life. Sort of a detour, if you please.

In other words, my focus shifted a few years ago, away from the more important things that I believe I was born to do. Not that what I’ve been doing hasn’t been important, but simply put….it’s not my calling.

I know what my calling is and it requires much dedication, consecration and time given to prayer and growing in my walk with GOD.

Whether you believe it is Biblically correct or not(and I’m sure some don’t), I am an ordained minister and yes….I am a woman. I am not a pastor, I’m not even much of a pulpit preacher, mostly I teach. This is my real purpose in life, what I was born to do and I have neglected it a bit over the last few years. Not completely of course, but I haven’t given the spiritual side of my life the time that I know is required for me to be the best that I can be for GOD and HIS plan for my life.

The world as we know it is rapidly going downhill, we don’t know what the future holds, but it looks dim in the natural. I have taught preparation for a long time and now it’s time for me to get down to some serious preparation myself and building up the Spiritual house instead of the natural.

Simply put….it’s time to get more serious than ever before about my relationship with GOD and the future of my purpose.

I can do longer give the time to Facebook and this blog that is needed for prayer, studying and reading the WORD.

Does this mean I’ll never be on Facebook?  No, it doesn’t. I still have several pages I am responsible for, but they don’t require anywhere near the time that these pages do.  I won’t be on Patti’s Place Facebook anymore after this week, but like I stated earlier, I may occasionally write a blog article here.

In other words, my priorities and focus have shifted and that’s a good thing for me.

I’m not worried about any of you not finding what you need on Facebook and elsewhere on the net; there are a multitude of sites that are much better than mine. I appreciate the loyalty and friendship that I have received from so many of you.

I will miss you, but it’s time.

Blessings from my place to yours!

  12. Once you set up your website, get your content flowing and schedule all relevant social media your web traffic will begin to pick up. You can make good passive income money online with affiliate marketing. All users will be able to join a closed business group of Overnight Freedom on Facebook. It is your website where you start earning commissions by selling Big Rock's products and services. Affiliate marketing is an ideal way of promoting a business owner's product or service because it allows them to gain access to a targeted audience without doing all the hard work. Organic search traffic comes from people finding business links among search engine results. If you don't have any direct experience with or knowledge of products in your niche that could help your readers, you can often find good affiliate products on affiliate networks (← our detailed guide).

    Choose your affiliate programs carefully. Manipal ProLearn's Affiliate Marketing course can help you effectively leverage affiliate marketing strategies to build an online business model. If you have decided to fit paid traffic into your affiliate marketing arsenal, then using one of the above traffic sources would be immensely useful to you but only if you know how to use it properly. But not all affiliates advertise the products in the same way. That it's 3800% worth it to invest some time and money into growing your email list. So, use Google Autocomplete and other keyword research tools to find opportunities to sell affiliate products (or more so, help people find a solution), and see what's out there. Cookie stuffing is an underhand practice of depositing cookies of a site onto the users' computers even when the user has never visited the merchant site through an affiliate link or even the affiliate website. https://www.reviewengin.com/overnight-freedom-review/

  14. When you're building an affiliate marketing business , there are many different ways that you can go Choosing your niche and related affiliate programs can be a difficult decision, given that there's an incredible amount of options. Implement the simple four-step system, applicable in any industry, to guarantee maximum and predictable profit growth in your business. For starters, there are a lot of up-sells, and the up-sells are basically useless. But then, you will have to sell a lot of pens to make good money. H&R Block provides services of Individual Income Tax Filing, U.S. Expat Tax Filing, Business Tax preparation and GST managed services. After you've chosen a product to promote in a certain niche, the Market Analyzer can help you make sure that there is great potential in the niche to make money, and how difficult or hard its going to be. If you're a complete beginner, this will help you choose easier markets to target. If you're curious to know why we consider these niches to be money-making, please, scroll down to the bottom of the page.

    Income Tax Return is essential for making any investment and goes to prove that you have a valid source of income to make such investment. MMO (Make Money Online) is another niche that's NOT going to go away. I am willing to show you how to start a website, do keyword research, and save money at every step of managing your online business. Select the Income Tax Returns option and the relevant assessment year from the drop-down menus and submit. Build your audience on a course community: If you're just getting started building an audience for yourself and want to leverage communities already actively looking for content you can choose to host and sell your online course on a site like Skillshare or Udemy. You can start a blog behind your passion and make money with it but I found it easier to make money in niches that others are passionate about and just become passionate about the lifestyle that blogging allows me to live. If you fail to sell a product that isn't profitable or in a big enough market, then it's going to end up being a big waste of money and time. https://www.reviewengin.com/niche-profit-fast-track-review/
