Do you ever find that you don’t follow your own advice? I do! I tell my clients to formulate an editorial calendar and write their blogs a day to a week in advance. Yet, I’m grasping for a topic the afternoon of launch. Ordinarily, I would get down on myself for not following the advice I tell others. But, not today. And, here’s why…

I think the important thing here is that you give good advice, regardless or not you always follow what you say (of course you always should). The goal is the message you're putting out - you're the messenger, not the message.

At the end of the day, that is what we should be aiming for - helping people.

I am glad you have clients that understand and follow your advice. That's often difficult even IF you lead by example. Keep it up!
