Taking Holistic Home Office to the Next Level
by Bob Mccoy
Check out Freedom is Lawful. It is a documentary about the biological and spiritual nature of freedom, which I made using iStockphoto, my phone, KDE Neon and Kdenlive. I posted it as a permanent page, so that it doesn’t get pushed off the front page as I continue to produce content.
Freedom is Lawful is a much more interesting video than my usual ones, where I’m talking and using a few primitive tools for a background. I’m still talking and using the primitive tools, I’ve just added some really nice looking photos and video. I added a little audio, but I still have a lot of learning to do in that category. My Samsung S22 Ultra has a great camera, the audio is not that great. I’m thinking about learning how to use Audacity with Kdenlive to improve the audio. Some good microphones and recording hardware would be very helpful, but that costs a lot of money.
I’ve been reading and watching videos about using WordPress and it’s Gutenberg editor, in order to learn how to make my website a lot prettier and functional. Spend some time working on learning and improving the search engine optimization of your stories and your website.
WordPress is a great website development tool. Spend some time studying it and learn how to be a high performance WordPress developer. Remember to keep all of your accounts up to date. Make sure your notifications are turned on so your web host, domain registrar and SEO plugin, etc., can remind you when your payments are due.
Keep your accounts and bills well organized. Keep your home office neat and clean and well organized. Work on that. Work on keeping your file system well organized. As you work on your projects, it is easy for your file system to get disorganized. Spend some time working on getting your content organized so that it is easy to access, so you can just drag and drop or cut and paste your content into your website.
Create a lot of content. You’ll improve your skill and style by repetition. Keep using the tools every day. Focus on learning how to use WordPress. It is a very powerful tool and the more you know about it, the more powerful it is.
Sometimes I just get on here and start writing. I’m wiring this story in the Gutenberg editor. The blog is like a journal for me. This is probably not the most search engine attractive way to produce content. It’s probably not all that interesting to readers either. Your audience has their own agenda. Your agenda is a distraction to everyone other than yourself.
Work on keeping your content focused on your audience’s agenda, not “my agenda.” How can I help you be a high performance, home office based artisan? Watch Freedom is Lawful to learn some very advanced ideas about improving yourself and helping others whenever you can.
