Handling Tragedy, For Those Leading Others, Spiff Up Reviews
Published: Sun, 11/15/15
“Tiffany – I’ve watched you go through a terrible divorce and handle a major health crisis – how do you get stuff done when all this happens?” Since this kind of situation just happened, I thought I’d share.
Some of you know that I’ve gone from being a newshound tuned in 24/7 to someone who had to tune out to let go of some of the emotional toll the news can take on you – especially if you’re like me and tend to get REALLY riled up at the news.
So when the Paris tragedy happened, I didn’t know. My good friend Johan messaged me and I turned on the TV, reliving the heartbreak and fear of terrorism all over again – feeling for my French friends for the sheer panic in their faces on the screen.
I watched until I had absorbed the facts, aware of the immense anger rising in me the more I heard – tears streaming down my face, trying to explain to my children why the world is how it is, and watching as my son hung our enormous French flag (for our heritage) in the living room window.
And then I turned it all off.
Whenever tragedy hits, it’s okay to take some time to let yourself handle it. You won’t be at your best at work anyway. And your loved ones need you. It’s in our soul to grieve for the pain of others.
But letting it consume you for days on end isn’t beneficial for anyone. Once you allow yourself enough time to get informed and have whatever emotional response you have, and then try to separate your productivity sessions from that.
Yesterday, I knew I was sad and focused on what had happened – so I didn’t mail out. I just shifted gears to world news, and followed that up with a cathartic evening spent with my daughter – a focus on the happy parts of life. That way, I knew I could return to work and productivity today.
So if you go through something bad, give yourself some sort of self nurturing before you try to get right back to work. It helps. Now, here’s what I have for you today…

#2 – Spiff Up Reviews
Sometimes, I see reviews that are visually boring. I’m a HUGE advocate of text content being the meat of your review. Real, honest, solid information. But I also can’t deny the fact that when someone lands on your site, you want to SEE it pop.
You know how Subheadlines break up text and make scanning a review easier? Visual aids do that, too – and Kurt Chrislar made a neat WP Plugin that spiff up your review for you. Makes it eye catching, more professional, and easier to shop “at a glance.”
Scroll down a bit to where it says “From this…To this…” That’s a HUGE difference for visitors.

Okay I’m back to work. And by the way, earlier today, I gave myself 15 minutes to watch the news before I sat down to work. Informed. Emotions. Productivity. We have to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
Prayers for all my French friends – and all of us around the world in the crosshairs of these savage monsters.
Tiff :)
