I’ve Been Quiet and Here’s Why
It’s been quiet on this blog for a few months. I know. I’m working on a few projects:
- I’m filling my Camtasia Made Simple course.
- I’m preparing my presentation for the only new media event that I MUST attend - New Media Expo.
- I’m getting ready to post a call for speakers for a video marketing summit to be held in Toronto in November.
- And, I’m in the final stretch of my Social Media Mastery coaching group.
DISCOVERING MY PATH
Aside from the projects above, I’m working on something behind the scenes that is consuming alot of my attention. You see, the reason I’ve been quiet is because I’m trying to define my path.
When you don’t know where you’re going, it can be so frustrating. But, as soon as you get clarity on the path you’re supposed to take, it’s the most freeing experience EVER.
It’s not to say that I’ve haven’t done good work, or that my clients haven’t achieved results working with me. Not at all. However, every business must go through a change and mine is no different.
CAN I PUNCH MY COACH?
Over the past 30 days, my coach has been challenging me to find my unique wisdom, to be a big fish in a small pond and to define my persona.
What a difficult thing to do. I’ve had to dig deep down and recall my flaws, triumphs, disappointments and successes from my entire life. Did you hear me? I said my ENTIRE life.
That means documenting:
- My first day at school and how I hung to my mom’s leg so she wouldn’t leave me.
- Or, the time I tore a ligament in my knee that resulted in me losing a basketball scholarship to a Division 1 school in the United States.
- Or, the joy I felt finally skiing down a Black Diamond without landing on my butt once.
