Personal development for "smart" people is so very appropriate.
I think every post and part of this blog is the most smart, and insightful
I have ever read. I have spent hours and hours just reading today.
I am fifty, female, and recently have become self employed. I am a trade show marketing specialist, and help businesses design and choose displays
and exhibits to highlight their product or service. i spent ten years working for another company, and have taken the leap of faith into self employment.
So far so good, but i seem to have a problem with time mangement.
Lately, i find myself on the laptop till way up into the morning, and then
end up sleeping a little late. I strive to get up and be in my home office, dressed and with my coffee, at sometime between 9 - 10 am. I normally work through the day with no lunch, and hang it up at 6. But, I find myself
doing research all through the evening. I don't want to make my whole life
in these four walls. So, I guess what i miss the most about not having a "real" job is getting out and interacting with people, going to lunch, chatting, hanging out, laughing, etc..
I struggle with the feeling of being a "fraud" and "who do I think I am" so
that is another obstable, my self defeating behavior. I hope this site and all the articles will help me to overcome this and find some focus as well.
I am happy to be part of this community and look forward to many hours of
reading, learning, and interacting.
