The most popular quote from our twitter account in week 49 of 2013:

Most RT'd quotes last week on @thecoachingblog

Each Monday I share the most RT’d quote(s) from the blogs twitter account over the previous week. Last week the most RT’d tweet was:

“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”

(John Quincy Adams)

Tweeted on 5th December

The next most RT’d tweet was:

“If you are going through hell, be sure to keep going.”

(Winston Churchill)

Tweeted on 3rd December

 

thank you

Many thanks to everyone who shared the quotes above and the other quotes from last week. I know that there are various aspects that can influence if a quote attracts your attention – if you saw the tweet, personal style, if it speaks to something happening in your life at that moment etc.

Which quote do you prefer?

(For those of you as geeky as I am and wondering what tool I’m using to measure individual RT’s this week I’ve been playing with www.twitonomy.com)

 

 

 

 


Recapping the Facebook Monday Invite (from 2nd December 2013)

share your posts

Each Monday on this blogs Facebook page I issue the following question and invitation:

“Have you written/seen a blog post in the past week that you’d think is of interest to coaches and that you’d like to share?”

At the end of each week I will be posting a recap of a selection of the links shared that Monday on our Facebook page.

Posts shared on Monday 2nd December 2013:

  • “PARENTS……usually not about wins and losses” by Sports coach DeAngelo Wiser
  • Helen Collier has an Advent Calender on her blog with a daily money and Christmas related entry. You can read Day 1 ‘Bah Humbug’ here

These are a few posts that also attracted my attention either personally or because of readers requests to read more on a particular subject…

Bonus posts:

Want your post included next week? If you have a post that you think will be of interest to coaches do take part in tomorrow’s Monday invite and leave the details on our Facebook page. Whilst it’s lovely for posts to be sent to me via twitter, the nature of a tweet means that it can easily be overlooked when this post is being compiled at a later time. Please leave links in one place, ie the thread on our Facebook page so they can be easily shared.
