What’s On My To-Do List For My Online Businesses This Week?

Balancing Business and Creativity: My Week Ahead

I go over this week’s to-do list for my online business, music, website design, and video editing priorities. From shipping vintage collectibles to redesigning websites and creating video content.

Online Reselling Business - The Pop Culture Roadshow

First, I need to pack and ship orders from my online store, The Pop Culture Roadshow. I find and resell vintage toys, books, and games. I try listing at least five new items daily to make sure that the store remains active to draw customers in.

Website Redesigns

I'm also currently in the process of redesigning my websites. I'm revamping both my personal site here and my band’s website, Lorenzo's Music. Both sites are going to be in the style of old-school television screens and VHS Tapes. It's a look that I've been doing for my band's weekly music and talk live stream.

Video Production and Editing

I've also been filming and editing videos, including a behind-the-scenes look at how I created a remix for my album "Lorenzo's Remixes, Volume 2". I show my setup for the song in the recording software and go over how I recorded it, track by track.

So I'm just figuring out a way of prioritizing tasks and managing my time effectively. So I'm just trying to stay focused and not get sidetracked, even though I do keep getting distracted by my website redesigns.

I hope these to-do vlogs I've been making inspire you to get motivated to tackle your own to-do list as well!

I'm going to try and see if I can find out how this game was created, designed and why? Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949.
