  • When People Reach Out and Remind You of the Advice You’ve Given? Blessed.

    August 9, 2017 /

    Yesterday, I received an email from a former student of mine. She said she is an avid reader of my blog and encouraged me to keep on going having read one of my posts I wrote about needing a break from writing. She’s clever, this one. She asked if I remembered advice I had given in class, and stated that she remembered me offering it to students on one pretty, spring day. The advice I had given was this: to step away sometimes from things we are working on and come back to them with fresh perspectives. Yes, I do remember saying that. It’s one of my mantras for writing.…

  • The Case for Teaching: Inspiring Students AND Inspired by Students

    July 30, 2017 /

    It’s Sunday morning, and I’m sitting on my porch writing this post and looking at this glorious day sipping my cup of coffee from my Yeti (which keeps it INCREDIBLY hot, let me just say). In a little while, my daughter and I will head to my parents’ house and sit by their pool and spend time with my brother and his family who are visiting. My son and husband will go play golf–a ritual they’ve tried to do on one day of the weekend. I love that they do this, as my son has one year left of high school before he enters college. I love my summers; they…

  • Procrastination Doesn’t Pay

    September 22, 2016 /

    * As a college educator, I can certainly tell you with certainty that procrastination doesn’t pay. I see it every day—sometimes getting started on the task is actually more difficult for some than executing the task itself. The truth is, people think procrastination is about managing time. However, it’s much more complex than that. People underestimate how much time a certain task will take. Another fallacy is that people think procrastination is just about putting off a task. It’s not. It’s also about being late to meetings, events, interviews, or parties; not paying your bills on time; or even something that can be good for you, like taking your paycheck to the bank. These are…

  • Choosing the Perfect Briefcase

    July 13, 2015 /

    Finding the perfect briefcase is like finding the perfect purse: it takes time, patience, and a good eye. If you’re anything like me, choosing the right bag is never easy; we all have different needs based upon our line of work. Whether it’s a briefcase or a bag, all the right design components must come together just how you like them in order for you to make that purchase. Briefcases are typically a needed (and not so inexpensive) accessory, so choosing one that suits you is important. Briefcases are both a cost and lifestyle investment. When you purchase something that is going to be a daily part of your work…
