I just went ahead and never looked back.” Best Advice You Received from Someone Else “Create a demand and then supply it.” –Elizabeth Shown Mills One Action Genealogists Can Take Right Now “Create an education plan. Picture where you want to be and assess where you are now. Then fill in the gaps.” Recommended Book Only a Few Bones by John Phillip Colletta The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell Advice “We are all on this earth to teach, to learn and to love.

And then fill in the gaps. No matter what your niche is in genealogy this is a good exercise to do. News The Genealogy Professional podcast is now available on Spotify. Search for either Marian Pierre-Louis or genealogy to find it. Don’t forget to follow! If you’re a YouTube you can also find all the episodes of the podcast on YouTube. Don’t expect any video. It’s just an audio-only file with a picture but I’ve put it over there because some people are more comfortable with that platform. Join the TGP Action Group on Facebook! You can find it at https://www.facebook.com/groups/TGPActionGroup/ If you’re not on Facebook, follow the Genealogy Professional on LinkedIn. You can get new episode notices there. Go to Linkedin and search for The Genealogy Professional and hit the follow button. I’m continuing in my effort to get back on a bi-weekly schedule for the podcast. Eventually I’ll settle on an exact release date twice a month. But in the meantime you can expect a new podcast generally every two weeks.
