There’s only one YOU: Shine!
Personalize it!
Why personalized? Just more capitalist thinking? Is this just more soft, smooshy, feel-good snake oil for sale?
If Define Your Lines is nothing else, it is a space that I offer you to personalize and tailor:
Your purpose.
Your path.
Your projects.
Your processes.
Your papers.
Your publications.
Hopefully, given what I’ve shared in this overview of my 5 pillars for cultivating sustainable and pleasurable education and writing journeys, you also see how uniquely suited this process must be to YOU and each project.
Is it a template for future projects? A rosetta stone of work simplification?
No, but this journey is full of recognizing patterns of what works for you as an educator, student, and writer, and those patterns taken as a whole are your uniqueness. These are the stamps that help you see yourself in along the way – in each project, paper, and challenge – that you can confidently say are YOURS!
Ah, yep! I recognize this part of the process.
Huh, look at that! I did it again…I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
There it is: My argument full-circle. Time to bring this home.
Whatever those patterns are for you, I want to make them more explicit, more tangible, more useful to you! You may already be doing some of this and just not have connected the dots…
