		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve flirted with resolutions for years. Focused in on 3 Words a few times. But as we prepared to close out 2017 and usher in the new year I got to thinking about what I wanted more of, and on the flipside, what I could live with less of. From those furious synapses came this manifesto [&#8230;]]]></description>

Delve into how you truly are at that moment and possibly share the bad along with the good? Whether because of time constraints or social norms, most of us [&#8230;]]]></description>

What it means to move through ordeals, opportunities and adventures with your energy and your enthusiasm for your work, and life in general, close to intact. And in the midst of it, to remain creative and focused. This week&#8217;s Monday Manifesto couldn&#8217;t have come at a better time. [&#8230;]]]></description>

Not being aware of structure and arcs and rules and just freeing words from my brain and putting them down in some permanent way. In order to have that freedom again, I need to bring back the discipline and order. Sounds a bit like a [&#8230;]]]></description>

When looking back, it often feels like it flew. 2004 was the year I made the jump from my first love &#8211; journalism &#8211; to my second career &#8211; public relations. And a decade ago today &#8211; December 15, [&#8230;]]]></description>

When I need a shot of confidence, when I need that extra oomph, when I need something to think instead of spouting off at competitors and doubters. These are the words [&#8230;]]]></description>
