<p class="MsoNormal"><em>“It takes courage to hold visions that are not in the social mainstream…But it is exactly that courage to take a stand for one’s vision that distinguishes people&#8230;”  <strong>Peter Senge</strong></em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Okay…this is harder that most people think and it’s not about the time.<span> </span>Blogging is thinking.<span> </span>Have you ever heard someone say, “Bear with me, I am thinking out loud?”<span> </span>In a similar fashion, blogging is thinking in prose.<span> </span>It is humbling and exciting at the same time.<span> </span>After launching our blog in the spring, we had a quick flurry of posts.<span> </span>And then, a blogging vacation happened accidentally.<span> </span>But this was a good accident.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Blogging is not article writing.<span> </span>It is a bit about problem solving and it is a lot about sharing of oneself.<span> </span>I took some time to look around at other blog postings to see what and how people are writing.<span> </span>What I discovered was that the blogs that made impressions, were informative sometimes, motivating sometimes and risk-taking oft times.<span> </span>Just like thinking can stretch us – that’s what blogging can do.<span> </span>We can focus on the meta-cognitive process and see if there is a problem that can be solved or a direction to be taken.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While this blog will almost always be about business development, we want it to also be about creating good and working for change within us and in our world. We hope that in time, there can be a dialogue between writers and readers.<span> </span>We hope we can create a productive environment where we problem solve, think out-loud, share concerns, offer critical analysis and push at complacency.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Onward!</p>
