I can't help looking back at things I've done and finding ways I could have made them better. I'm a creative person, I need to be for my job, so perhaps I suffer from this more than other but I doubt it. I'm sure many of you experience this as well. It's like I said a few weeks ago, strive for excellence, not perfection. But I can't help looking back sometimes and seeing all the imperfections that in my mind don't make it excellent.

It’s hard to believe that a month has now passed since Podcast Movement. Shortly after I got back from PM15 I penned an episode called “Enjoying the Benefits of Breaks” where, among other things, I talked about how much work had gone into getting ready for that event. As I sit here now with the perspective of a month of days between me and the event, I thought I’d take a few minutes and share what I’ve learned. Read More...

Impostor Syndrome can be defined as a collection of feelings of inadequacy that persist even in face of information that indicates that the opposite is true. It is experienced internally as chronic self-doubt, and feelings of intellectual fraudulence.

In layman's terms, it's the belief that you're an imposter even though you're not. Read More...

Today’s episode isn’t about my life in the corporate world per se, but it does touch on my experience in leaving that world. Today’s episode topic is important. It’s so important to me, that it was one of the first topics I discussed back in episode 14, “You Do Not Have Because You Do Not Ask.” Mark also touched on this topic in episode 248, “Ask and You Shall Receive.”

What is today’s topic? Asking.

While there are several moments in my life that I can look back on and see how the simple act of asking had a profoundly positive impact, I want to focus on three of them today.

The first example is the story that I shared in episode 14. I’ll briefly retell it. Read More...

That was my mistake. I got the crazy idea in my head that I wanted everything to be perfect before I launched my Resourceful Designer podcast. But I don't need it to be perfect. I only need it to be excellent, which at my current level of podcasting is easily achievable. And once it's launched, I can then keep striving for excellence by making each episode better than the last as my skills keep improving. Read More...

Today I want to tell you a story about misfit. Our misfit was born and raised in the north where it is very cold. The town where he grew up was dependent on a single employer and a single industry. So just like everyone else he knew, he was destined to work at the same factory as they were.

While this may seem like a boring, even monotonous way of life, no one seemed to mind. Everyone got along, they all had a really good boss, and they took pleasure in the quality of their work and the impact they were making on the world. Read More...
