Just wanted to let you know that I’ve begun a new blog that specifically addresses the education world. If you’re a teacher or a concerned parent, I hope you’ll join me in this new conversation. You can find it at http://fromwhereistand.wordpress.com.

BRB @ Thomas Nelson
Just signed up for Thomas Nelson Publishing Company’s BRB (book review blogger) program. I pick a book from a list they give me, they send me a copy for free, and then I post a review on my blog and on a major bookseller’s website.
Hmm… I’ll be reading something anyway, why not get the scoop out on my blog about the latest books?
Either way, I hope it will be a way for me to write down the thoughts I’m having as I read and make a focused effort toward using the information I glean from books. Something that has been bothering me lately is the way I continue to consume so many good ideas and information from a variety of sources, but I never take the time to stop and focus on those ideas to see how they might really change the way I teach, parent, love, live, or interact.
Focus is the key. Slow down. Focus. I’m trying anyway. I’m cutting some things out of my schedule to make room. Not room for MORE. Just room. Room to focus and dive deep.

How Do People…?
How do people…
- have time to blog every day?
- have time to read dozens of blogs every day?
- have time to contribute/comment on other people’s blogs every day?
Am I missing something?
What is the secret?
