In making the decision as to whether or not to blog I came up with a few Pro and Con positions.<\/p>\n
Reason #1. <\/strong>Use the disciple of writing a blog to organize my thoughts. (I discussed this issue in my posting of 2007-12-5 Why Blog?)<\/p>\n Reason #2. Give back some of my knowledge of the world.<\/strong><\/p>\n During this journey through life I have zigged and zagged through many fields of interest and a variety of careers. Often I’ve been asked to lecture on various subjects or to sit on a discussion panel of one subject or another. Several subjects I’ve spoken on in the past have been:<\/p>\n \u2022 Creativity and the Business of Art. I could go on but compiling this list helped me to recognize that I have enough subjects and material to justify a blog. What a waste it is it if I keep this knowledge bottled up inside my head. I believe that some of my learned experiences will touch others in new, different and unexpected ways. Isn’t that where innovation and evolution comes from? I’m just part of the process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
