First week of discovery
Ok, so I didn’t spend last Friday educating myself on the programs of my trade. Instead, I visited a local high school career day and enlightened some students about the great job I have and what it takes to become a graphic/website designer. It was a fun day, and the kids asked some really great questions.
The discovery I made was in taking a good hard look at what it took me to get where I am today. In preparation for the day with students I reviewed my education, the skills I acquired during and since leaving school, starting and building my business, making business contacts to build a network of potential client sources, and the continuing need to learn my ever-changing trade.
I realized I have worked hard to get where I am now, that I will need to continue to work hard and educate myself in order to stay competitive in today’s market, and how lucky I am to have found a profession that still excites me everyday. I also discovered how much I love talking about my job and letting people know that I love what I do. I really do look forward to going to work each morning to see what new challenge awaits me.
Hopefully this Friday I will be able to post information concerning the things this blog is all about. Now back to the work at hand!
