Thanks to Marianne Lenox and the MLxperience for pointing me to Kim Cofino’s blog and recent post, “Less is more — making your presentations zen-tastic!” and link to the Flickr group, Great quotes about learning and change.
Speaking of learning and change, I’ll be finishing my full-time gig with MaintainIT at the end of March and am going to be doing freelance consulting and teaching for a while. I’ll be staying in KC, but am trying to think big and broad as I imagine what this next stage of professional life will look like. Completing a book for Information Today and finishing my dissertation are at the top of the to-do list, but there’s room for more (there’s need for more to make this financially viable and to keep life interesting). As I approach these changes, I am thinking about a post from one of my favorite blogs, which really resonates with me. Hmmm… I’ll keep you posted.

I am excited to see what wonderful things you will accomplish in your new role! I hope you will enjoy consulting work as much as I do. I LOVE the link to the zen blog post. I definitely agree with–and try to follow–those tips and while I wouldn’t say my work is effortless it is SO much less stressful and more enjoyable than before I made my life changes. And I better use my skills and talents to do what I’m passionate about–supporting libraries. Here’s to new adventures and ideas!
So glad the post and links were helpful! Thanks for sharing it with your readers too 🙂
