Cadillac Ranch- Home to Podcamp 2011
Just like Christmas, it’s here and gone before you know it and leaves you looking forward till next year. Podcamp was different for me this year. Why? I volunteered during the event. Having been to Podcamp last year and Barcamp in the fall, I felt that it was time to return the favor that these great events had bestowed upon me. What exactly that entailed, I wasn’t so sure about, but I was going to do whatever I could to make the event enjoyable for someone else.
My wife called me during the day and asked if I was having fun, and I responded that it was interesting. She got worried that I wasn’t enjoying myself after I had been looking forward to this, but I told her that it was a different experience helping out.
Another year has come and gone and we are all a little wiser. Everyone always make resolutions that are for the most part, unobtainable, at least to the degree of success that we envision. Just like everyone else, I have made my list out and plan to follow it. What I am doing though is sharing it and asking for support. Should I start to falter and fall off the horse, I would hope someone would offer a kick in the ass or a kind word of encouragement to keep me going. As you can see by my desk on a recent FB upload, my office is in less than pristine condition. Cluttered desk=cluttered mind. So for the sake of my sanity and upcoming semester, I’m taking a week off to get myself in the right frame of mind. Today is my day to layout the framework for next weeks marathon GTD session, as well as the upcoming semester. Will it all get done? Who knows. But if I plan things out right, I’ll be a lot better off than I am now.
