The most popular quote from our twitter account from week 16 of 2014:
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:
“No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying.”
(Tony Robbins)

The next most RT quote was:
“People who say it cannot be done, should not interrupt those who are doing it.”
(George Bernard Shaw)
Tweeted on 7th April
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.
(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)

Blog posts for coaches from around the web – 20th April 2014 2
Welcome to this weeks recap of blog posts for coaches from around the web. Each Monday on this blogs Facebook page I usually 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?”
You’ll notice that the recap today is broken down into two lists – one of posts shared via our Facebook page from the Monday invite and one of other posts from around the web.
Posts shared last week on our Facebook page:

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.
