What's In A Name?

Why the name: Your Daily Dose of Vitamin E-12?

After 1 whole week of maintaining this blog, I am pumped up to have 2 followers! Now I haven't really been marketing this blog that well & the two followers that I do have are great friends from church (one of them being my pastor). However, after talking to them both, I came to the realization that the name of my blog may be one of the reasons I haven't reached too many people yet.

Those closest to me would understand where the idea of "Vitamin E-12" found it's origins & why it is actually a pretty cool concept name for my blog & twitter accounts, but most of you are probably just completely confused. The truth is that I am extremely "technologically challenged" & merely an infant in the world of social media, so I asked my 16 year old sister to help me get started. I mean let's be honest...who else do you turn to when you need to learn how to do something on the computer or a new smart phone now days?

So, Amber helped me set up my accounts (meaning she set up the accounts, showed me how to log on, and where to go in order to distribute my knowledge & opinions to the cyber world) & in doing so..."Your Daily Dose of Vitamin E-12" was born!

She came up with the name because a lot of my friends call me "E" and I have always worn the #12 in any organized athletic sport that I have competed in from the time I was 5 years old. Thus the name "E-12".

As for the the rest of the blog title...well that I attribute to the fact that even at 16 years of age, I have realized that my little sister is already better @ sales & marketing than I am at twice her age...go figure!

Hence the name "Your Daily Dose of Vitamin E-12"

I felt the need to clarify or explain this topic after my pastor told me that he didn't realize that it was me, but instead thought that I was some rapper or DJ who liked one of his tweets...I mean let's be serious, why wouldn't a rapper want to follow the infamous pastor of a 2 year old church plant in Palm Beach Gardens, FL?

No...I'm definitely nothing close to being a hip/hop artist (although I did dabble in college...usually after a few adult beverages), but I did own a karaoke business with my father @ one point in my life & have absolutely no problem with getting up on stage & making a complete fool of myself from time to time (no alcohol necessary).

On a more serious note...I highly encourage you to follow this blog, as well as my pastor's: http://www.chipstallings.blogspot.com/

My goal is to provide you with something to read that's entertaining, but more importantly...LIFE GIVING!

Thanks for taking the time to get to know me through this venue. I hope you learned a little about me & I look forward to getting to know a lot about you!

Here's to Making Life Happen one day at a time!!!
