This is a long, complicated story, but that�s life, isn�t it?
I always try to find strategies to make my life better, to make it easier. That doesn�t always work.
I wanted to play an old song, �It�s A Man Everytime�.� I �was able to find a recording on the net, but I couldn�t find the lyrics. I knew there had to be a way to get speech to text so I could easily print out the lyrics from the recording. I spent three hours on it and couldn�t do it, so I used a good strategy and went to a friend for help.
He couldn�t do it either.
Finally, I gave in and decided to do it the hard way. I started playing the recording on my PC and paused at the end of every line and dictated the words into my iPhone. I knew this would be slow and laborious, but the easy way didn�t work.
It took me five minutes.
Strategies O the Day:�
When what you�re doing isn�t working, try something different.
Sometime you need to just grit your teeth, hitch up your pants, and grind it out.
