Break for Spring

A lot of southern U.S. schools have spring break this week.  Cheers for them! As of yesterday, we are 20% through the calendar year.  Seems like a good time for everyone who can to take at least a day to celebrate the ending of winter and the beginning of spring.  And this is another chance for a fresh start for those who haven't honored new year's resolutions as faithfully as anticipated.  Plus, it's a good time to clear our mental cobwebs as we tackle the physical ones.

I'm breaking for spring.  Back to blogging on Monday.

Brain on Vocation or Vacation

As we begin a new job, career or project, we are laser-focused on our vocation.  This intensity of focus serves us well. Over time, our comfort level may allow our attention to wander.  Though we all need periodic down-time, we must occasionally check to see that the time our brain is on vocation and on vacation is proportionate to achieving our goals.
