Keeping Life in Balance
We spent this past weekend camping at Sunshine Campground – a small primitive campground Southwest of Telluride, CO. The experience reminded me of how important it is to keep life in balance.
Much of my professional life revolves around technology – rather the transformations taking place in our society that are being fueled by new technology. I know many can feel overwhelmed by “work” and talk about escaping and getting “off the grid”. For me, that wasn’t it at all. I really enjoy what I do. I like being on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and even email. I like keeping in touch and sharing experiences with family and friends and that includes business associates. Hiking in the Colorado Mountains is very special but it is also fun sharing my adventures on Twitter and Facebook.
Clearly, the social web is helping blur the line between our business and personal lives. I think that is a good thing. This past weekend helped me clear out the “cobwebs” and reminded me that it’s the journey not the destination that is important.
