Self absorption seems to be a by-product of the situation I found myself in over the last year and a bit. Inward looking, self analysis, navel gazing, finding oneself, narcissism, self pity, whatever you may wish to call it…<\/p>\n
What is lacking is any new aim to create a distraction. Something else to think about.<\/p>\n
I’ve now got something where I can unleash a bit of creativity again. Where I can have valued ideas and put them into practise.<\/p>\n
I’ve got it…a little late, well very late actually and last minute panic ensues, but that just adds to the challenge.<\/p>\n
The UK Touratech Travel Event for June.<\/p>\n
I know, a weekend where we need speakers, marquee, advertising, sponsors and all that goes into something like this, planning starting April, is a bit…ridiculous actually, but those are the circumstances I now have to work with.<\/p>\n
It shouldn’t be achievable at such short notice.<\/p>\n
No doubt it will create more pressure than it should have if it had been started when it must surely be in the future and will be if I get my way…but, and here’s the perverse nature of such a dilemma…it’s got me fired up. It’s got me in to a mind set of, ‘I’ll show you”.<\/p>\n
Considering the alternative that I set out at the start of this post, I must say it’s a bright spot to aim for.<\/p>\n
I’ll make this a spectacular event, something that will raise the bench mark and leave folks with a desire for more. Bring it on.<\/p>\n
Three Teas…well I have a talk to give at Horizons Unlimited’s first Ireland gathering at the end of May. Another rekindling perhaps…from the embers.<\/p>\n
And the revamped website for this blog, with all the videos and pictures…nearly there, nearly there…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
