The #beplus Initiative

Recently on my Twitter account and right here on my blog, I've referenced what I call "The #beplus Initiative" or simply the hashtag #beplus.
The natural question to ask is the one I'll refrain from asking in written form. 😊 But I'll still give you the answer.

The Internet (and the world at large) has this need to focus on negativity. Whether it's news reports, gadgets releases, video games, Star Wars, politics etc. etc., you will find people posting snide remarks about something. Hating on it until you can't take it anymore. Bashing people for their liking something. It goes on and on etc. etc. It's like people live to be negative and force other people to feel the same way or goad them into an argument. You know "trolling".

And lately, I'm tired of it. I'm not a negative person. I try to be positive and focus on that.

And so, that's when I thought of The #beplus Initiative. To describe all the details of what it entails would take more than the length of a single blog post. So over the weeks and months I'll shed more light on exactly what is involved with being #beplus.

The first thing to know, though, is that #beplus is about being positive. So if you tweet, comment, critique etc. etc yet again, you keep the tone positive. There are many ways to do that. And I can't wait to share then with you.

Keep an eye out for #beplus. From time to time my tweets will contain that hashtag. As you see them, you'll hopefully start to get an idea of exactly what it's all about.
