I’m not going to lie in my first post (what kind of promising
start would that be?) and say that I've never made excuses.
It's easy to find something that gets in the way of a job well done. I can be quick to throw the blame and complain about this or that. I'm good at filling my days with things that don't last.
I've heard myself say "I just don't have enough time. They don't pay me enough. I don't have time for waiting for others, it's easier to just get things done."
I've heard myself say "I just don't have enough time. They don't pay me enough. I don't have time for waiting for others, it's easier to just get things done."
I can only imagine that teachers around the globe may say such things. And in my case, even if I'm not complaining, I can be complacent.
Don't get me wrong.
I love life. I enjoy my days. I can't get enough of this Mexican weather (has it already been 5 years since I left Minnesota?!?). I have a great job, but...
...I want to challenge myself.
Challenge myself to stop sitting on the sidelines, start new things,
stop seeing the problems and start making the solutions.
Sometimes it takes
something big to change the comfortable patterns you've created in life.
Call me crazy, but I want to pick up the pace and make a change.
Call me lucky, because 3 months ago I went to a Google Apps Conference in Mexico
City. Call me cursi (cheesy), but I think everything happens for a reason. Call
me hopeful, because I am ready to start over.
It’s time to make goals, time to start collaborating with fellow
colleagues – be it in Mexico or around the world, time to start connecting and
time to stop letting life pass me by.
Enough is Enough.
Enough is Enough.
Let’s do this, one day at a time.
Let’s talk.
Let’s learn.
Let's connect.
Let's teach.
Let’s love the adventure.
Join me, no promises for brilliance, but follow the day to day (or week to week) journey as we grow, help each other and have some fun along the way.
