NATURE TIP #3: Sit-Spot Practice


Find a place close to home that’s immersed in a natural (or semi-natural) setting. Ideally, this place will be in your backyard, so that it’s easy to get to. Visit this spot regularly—preferably daily or at least several times a week—and sit quietly there, observing with all your senses. Stay each time for 30-40 minutes, breaking visits into 10-minute intervals. Listen for birds and other animals, tracking your observations with notes and pictures in a nature journal. Encourage the kids in your life to do the same. In this way, with a little patience, anyone can learn the local “bird language,” the acquired skill of understanding the meaning of local animal calls and movements. Sit spot practice will get you in touch with all the wild nature events happening daily around your home. Pretty soon, those random birds will become characters with individual personalities that inform you about the current “mood” of the neighborhood. For more information, check out at a pair of books by Jon Young: “What the Robin Knows” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2012) and “Coyotes Guide to Connecting with Nature, Second Edition” (Owlink, 2010, with E. Haas and E. McGown).

  61. The largest Internet company in the world has positioned itself to play a seemingly ever-larger role in online commerce, with its third-party sellers poised to take additional advantage. The Skydropx statup's mission is to make shipping management easier for ecommerce and all types of entrepreneurs, giving them access to very competitive parcel prices. With more than one in five retail dollars now spent online, identifying the right payment processor and payment gateway is a "make or break" decision. (That’s right, no trial here.) Just add a site plan for more pages, and a custom domain when you’re ready for the world. Webflow’s customer support team is all around the globe, so we’re always available to point you in the right direction and answer questions. We are a design-led brand, and we strive to deliver an ecommerce experience that reflects that.If you’ve got the elbow grease and time, you could launch a profitable online store for a few hundred dollars per month. Make sure your ecommerce platform can scale with you and integrate with popular ecommerce marketplaces to increase your exposure. I’ve been in retail since 2005, I’ve opened physical stores, I’ve launched profitable websites and I’ve marketed small and large brands online. The amount of interest in ecommerce right now is unprecedented. https://albertdmenzel.wixsite.com/website-1/
