Hi, my name is Andre' Hartslief, I am a retired Human Resources manager, with a zest for life!
One thing life has taught me over the years is that it doesn't matter, whether you know a lot or a little to start with, research can always add the necessary pizzazz needed for an effective outcome.
I honestly believe, that our lives are not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the number of moments, that take our breath away!
I have been blogging on the Internet since 2008 and have posted over 2000 articles on dozens of my own websites as well as several content mills, some of which had in their heyday, shot briefly across the literary night sky like shooting stars, leaving a fiery trail in their wake, only to come crashing down to earth, burnt out, like so much space debris, taking many of my finest articles with them...
From the get-go, as a writer, the main passion, and area of focus for me, has been to write concise, valuable and clear web content that sparks desire, demands attention and compels action. The late writer Somerset Maugham said once:"It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it."
Today, web content faces two virtually insuperable problems: obscurity and neglect.
When I use the word obscurity, I mean, that, web content is buried beneath billions of layers of digital clutter and by neglect, I mean, that if someone should actually manage to somehow find your page, they would likely ignore it or even abandon it, unless the title would jump out and grab them away from their lacklustre persuits .
I sincerely believe, that when I am enthusiastic and sincere about the experiences I share, my own emotions, thoughts, and feelings about stuff that we all deeply care about, like matters concerning our very fragile environment, some of that "magic" rubs off on my readers.
So, to conquer my own fears, problems and negativity, I sit down and carefully craft my content in a style that search engines can easily find and the readers can walk away from, feeling just a little more inspired and aware, that no matter what demons they are facing in their lives, they will do so, head on, without flinching, because every one of them, are awesome and unique people!
I do this as an earnestly aspiring writer. Outside of this, I’m quite boring and incompetent.
