We often see ads with the pink “Energizer Bunny”, but this week’s new blog of week (NBOTW) credits his success to associating with”energizers”, e.g. positive people. People who are undoubtedly operating with a full charge.
I never looked at it that way, but it’s true. If you hang around negative individuals, soon you feel like all of your energy is being drained.
By leaving me a comment, this week’s NBOTW found me. Following the link, I found his inspiring site.
He quotes greats like Helen Keller, Napoleon Hill, Mahatma Gandhi, and Henry David Thoreau, just to name a few.
Here’s a sampling of his writings from “Overcoming Procrastination” :
This is important to know since success has always been tied to either luck or smartness and the fact suggests that neither has any nexus to success. It is plain simple recipe of persistence and constant acquisition of knowledge that makes one successful.
and in his 4 Habits Of Millionaire In Making he says,
Those who chase possessions are being possessed by worries. Worries to keep the lifestyle going when rainy day comes, worries about making others happy. In that rat race, they are not happy. They are the “millionaires in acting”. Who are then millionaires in making ?
And from a favorite post of mine, titled: 10 Pillars Of Successful Youth, he writes:
If we teach children the importance of conscious choices we make in life by example, they’ll become conscious about their actions.
This week’s NBOTW honor goes to Shilpan. His blog is titled: Success Soul

I think you’ll enjoy his blog. His posts are very motivational and positive. Something we can all use.

Barbara,
I’m so glad you found Shilpan and his SuccessSoul blog. He has so much to say and packs his articles with useful information. It’s lovely that you’ve chosen to feature him!
Now that he’s helped me to find your blog…I’m off to have a look around!
Hi Lori,
Welcome to the BWAB community.
Shilpan does have a great blog, doesn’t he? I still haven’t had time to read all of his posts, but what I’ve read so far, I’ve found very enlightening.
I also checked out your blog. I’ll be back to read more. The one on “midlife female bloggers” caught my eye. 🙂
Hi Cousin Kaye,
Thank you for the kind words.
I have a lot of fun doing this series. From experience I know it’s tough for new bloggers to “get found”. This is my “pay it forward” contribution to blogosphere.
BTW: What’s the chances of having you write a post on your blog with advice on what to do for dogs who hate fireworks? Fireworks make both of our dogs tremble and try to hide.
Thanks Barbara,
I love your NBOTW series. You open a window so we can see the wonderful people who are making positive contributions to this world.
Your cousin, Kaye Swafford
