A Delicate Balance
Note To Readers: Welcome to all the new Pause Blog subscribers. If you are one of those fine folks, you will have already read this message in the January 6th Pause e-zine.
I just realized that in my excitement at announcing the end of an era, that I neglected to post that final Pause message here on my blog as I usually do. So for the rest of you regular Blog subscribers, here it is. I look forward to keeping in touch with all of you through this blog in the days ahead.
“It’s not the time you put in, but what you put in the time.” This observation, known as Burg’s Philosophy, was the quote I featured in the very first Pause ezine published in 2001.
Looking back, I’m amazed at how many quotes and concepts I’ve shared over the last twenty years of messages. It’s been a creative challenge to partner the nub of an idea with reflection and research to craft messages that would help us all live with greater ease, meaning and joy.
I’ve especially appreciated my interactions with you, my readers.
- Sometimes you confirmed my thinking.
- Sometimes you challenged it.
- And often you pointed me in the direction of new ideas to explore. It’s been a great adventure and I’m grateful for it all.
As you may already have guessed from the tone of this message, after a run of two decades, I have decided to bring the era of the regular Pause ezine to a close.
That doesn’t mean I will stop noticing, thinking or writing. It does mean that I’m stepping away from a committed publication schedule and ezine format to embrace more freedom in form, topic, and timing. (more…)
