So, I've recently, I haven't been as big of a social networking type of person as I was. I used AIM religiously throughout college, updating my every move on and off campus, thanks to my laptop and high-speed internet connection. Life post college no longer revolves around who's eating what, where and with whom, etc; in that respect, I have fallen out of the social network loop. I have a Facebook page but haven't updated it since Christmas and I have realized that I might not want the whole world to know every nuance of my life. One of my learning experiences in this excercise is that there are other uses for blogs/social networking besides reporting who is having the best party this weekend or who is single/dating/broken up.
One learning goal that I have for myself as the Brooklyn branch manager is to start a blog based on books that I am reading. Maybe using teens/young adults as a test market since they dwell in the online world. As a goal, this may change as I have a tendency to hatch a new idea, play with it in my mind and mold it into something different or come up with several possible paths of reaching that idea/goal. Maybe I should try a contract with this one or just let what is in my brain be my unwritten contract. The hardest part of the 7 1/2 habits is the having fun part. I tend to be very goal focused and will often keep going until the job is done. It is important though to stop and take a break to clear your mind. I have even found that after taking a break, you will come back refreshed and motivated.
