Learning

Of the things I enjoy the most about social networking, one is certainly the ability it gives you to learn about cool stuff. Or sometimes stuff that isn't really all that cool. When I'm "wasting" my employer's valuable time on Facebook, I'm actually educating myself about all of life's offerings. I'm building my personal brand too, because let's face it, I have a personal brand so I might as well take part in building it. So Facebook, linkedin, twitter, they lead us not only to each other but to music, art, books and ideas that are shared, discussed and discovered at an astounding rate of about a zillion things shared every second. (This is approximate.) These are tools that can provide needed and appreciated sources of connection and inspiration for human beings. We are just human after all.

So while I am checking out pictures of my 3-month old nephew in Florida, I'm also, equally as important, checking out new ideas from the brightest minds in business. Being inspired, growing, and nurturing the bravery within that keeps us all both empowered and useful.
