Each week I learn something new about myself and I learn more about my MASD colleagues.  I am inspired by their stories and journeys. Understanding their point of view better, makes me understand myself better. I don’t know them, but it feels like I do.  I wrote 2 recommendations for meet ups and received two back. Learning about how others perceive me was eye opening. Call me crazy, but I would love to meet all those people sitting on the other side of words and experiences I am enlightened by.

As I read the book Tribal Leadership by Dave Logan I was delighted to find a resource for leadership in a corporate setting that I felt familiar with. I didn’t feel like a fish out of water! The author talks about 5 stages of personal and team leadership most commonly found in corporate world and other workplaces such as institutions of higher education and other establishments operated by large groups of people. The reading was easy to navigate.

There are 2 locations I’d love to visit. One is within the realm of possibility, the other one probably not so much. But one can dream! And no it’s not the moon or the outer space. I do love the idea of looking back in on earth but am terrified of such far distances, infinite heights and small contained spaces.

The first location I would love to visit is the newly build Panda Solar Farm in China.

Life was a destination I had in mind. My goal kept changing and I often felt aimless. Until I realized that life isn’t about the destination, instead it is about the journey.

And while I take every opportunity to lean something new that may aid or enrich my spiritual and professional growth,
