Peer Coach 2: Session 3

It was nice to focus on business building with Holly today. I hate to admit it, but it’s so much better than the Business Building classes at ICA! Probably because I get to focus on ME for 45 min/wk instead of on whatever the teacher (or the class) decides to talk about. I’m such a selfish bastard.

I get so animated when I talk about making When I Grow Up my career, that it helps squelch negative answers to questions such as:

“What are you getting yourself into?”

“Are you crazy?”

“Is this really – FINALLY! – the one that’s going to stick?”

The answer is yes. Yes, OK! YES! And YES it’s scary, and YES it’s a bit crazy, but YES it will be worth it, because it’s what I love and enjoy.

I’ve been kicking things into high gear with When I Grow Up. I started a blog yesterday (see link on the blogroll) and might actually have a website up by the end of the week! I’ll make sure to keep you all posted.

Next up: elevator speech. Can I really only limit myself to talk for only 30 seconds?

Today I’m grateful for Bryant Park and my lunch break. Mostly, sitting in Bryant Park during my lunch break, with a slight breeze on a warm day with no humidity. Spring in NY is unfrackingbelievable.
