It turns out I’ve now posted 501 posts in three years and twenty-six days since I launched this blog.
Wow! 501…no wonder I keep thinking I wrote posts on topics I haven’t covered yet (an error I hope to remedy soon) and it makes sense I keep finding posts that are treasures I want to re-gift to my friends.
I’ll get to new content for post 502.
Let’s get to the gifts:
For all the new readers: Refresher 1, Refresher 2, and Refresher 3
I don’t know what’s the matter with people: they don’t learn by understanding, they learn by some other way–by rote or something. Their knowledge is so fragile!” – Richard Feynman
For Tonya and Chelsea: The One Man Show
For Darla: The Wolves Are Afraid and Life Outside the Fences
For Rob: Underpants Gnomes
For Suzie: When Did We Decide That?
For Abbie: You’re Never Done
For Daniel and Nicole: Who’s Who (in the Zoo)
For Jay (aka @roguepolymath): Your Peter Principle guest blog post (I figured it better to highlight your writing as many of my quotes of the week are copied from your tweets)
For Mike: The first strengths post, the third post on the blog
I wish I could dig the archives and find a gift for each of you. I know there is just the right gift in there for your situation.
When you need a gift, a rant, a thought to perk you up after a rough day, just type a key word or two into the search box and see what comes up. Chances are there will be something that pops up that surprises you.
For example, type in:
Quote = 236 posts
Excited = 26 posts
Passionate = 16 posts
Hate = 30 posts
Frustrated = 14 posts
Rant = 26 posts
Choose = 80 posts
Act = 246 posts
Now = 14 posts
Why not try? = 107 posts
Why not?
Thanks for the gift! Your dedication to this blog and driving change is due for a celebration.
Lol at underpants gnomes. The reference reminds me of the lesson from Michael @ Cog Edge and “fire kiln.”
