The Past Year

For those of you who follow this blog, I am certain you are probably not following anymore.  It has been nearly fourteen months since I last posted on any of my blogs, and many people have probably lost all interest in my thoughts and opinions on topics and general life as I experience it.  And with that, I apologize.

The past year has been a struggle on many levels, which I plan to explore in a series of blog posts.  All aspects of my life countered each other: my career affected my family life, my family life changed my personal life, my personal life changed through physical ailments.  And through it all, I lost vision.  I had nothing to look forward to.  I am not going to bore you with details of what I went through, thought I may use some things as examples. I will also not pretend that my experience was horrifying, or in any way worse than anyone else.  But there are situations and lessons, experiences I can share, which someone out there may have encountered, and dealt with themselves.

On this blog, I will focus on career changes, as this is my outlet for Management and Leadership.  My career change had the most transformation on my life overall. I have been in my new position for about three months, and there are many things to share.  Over the course of the next several weeks, I hope to have the opportunity to update once a week on something new, using examples from where I am, and where I came from.  I hope you will all find something interesting as well.
