Job councilor Alfred Neil asks, "Do you keep a journal?" "Yes," I lie. How strange that someone who is there to help is so get-in-your face and confrontational right off the bat. But he was good. He got me thinking. I do need to write--to clear the cobwebs, smooth out the rough lines and awkwardness. Mostly I just need to get better at it--use that part of my brain I've let lie fallow. Monkey brain--weird to let things flow with a keyboard. The last time I did this was on a typewritter!
OK, my focus today is to come up with words to describe me and my strengths. Stuff to use on the Web site I'm building and in resumes. So here goes:
