Who else has the same thoughts about mundane tasks

I’m not necessarily the type of person to point out my faults to others, but in this case I’m going to make an exception. I’m lazy. I mean really lazy. I’d prefer if someone else could take all my mundane work and just do it for me.

I know I’m not the only one – that’s why there’s so many different applications out there for automating work. And I think that’s a good thing, because if you want to focus on growing your business (and your bottom line), you need to be spending your time wisely.

While we’ve done everything we can to make socialadr.com fast and easy to use, today you have the opportunity to take it that last step and go completely hands off. When you select the Lazy option, you literally don’t do anything at all other than put in the links you want shared. That’s it. Other users will push your links out to the social media sites, and you collect the social buzz.

Michael Phelps Is Usually Completely Stoic on the Podium. Not This Time He Heard the National Anthem…

Michael Phelps stood on the Olympic medal podium a few times before his Tuesday night win in the 200 meter butterfly. In fact, his gold medal in the 200 fly marked his 20th gold medal, and his 24th Olympic medal over all.

On Sunday evening, Phelps stood on the podium with teammates Nathan Adrian, Caeleb Dressel, and Ryan Held after the 4×100 meter freestyle relay. And when Held broke down in tears, Phelps was the one telling him it was ok:

“It’s good to see the emotion of those young guys. It shows they really do care and they love what they’re doing.”

But after giving his all to best South African swimmer Chad le Clos in the long-awaited rematch, Phelps, too, was overcome by the moment when he heard the opening notes of “The Star-Spangled Banner”:

And America noticed:

Phelps stepped off the medal stand, and made a beeline for the stands. His first stop? Mom:

Phelps began to climb back down to the pool deck, leaving his family with just two words: “One more.” (He had one more race – the 4×200 freestyle relay – to swim before the end of the night.)

His mother waved him off with a two word reply: “Do it!” And he did. Phelps anchored the relay team – that also included Ryan Lochte, Townley Haas, and Conor Dwyer – to yet another gold medal finish to cap off the evening.
