Push through it

When I’m at work…I have this great desire to work on my personal projects (photography, website design, music production, this blog, etc) and so I vow that the second I get home…I’ll go at it. Attack this work in such a dynamic way that I go to bed feeling the accomplished exhaustion I have on [...]

Worker’s Plea

New Years Resolutions for ’09

I have a ridiculous list for things I want to accomplish this year. Last year’s goals were decent but this year I’m really pushing myself. I don’t know if its more of a goal-setting year as much as it is changes towards  bettering myself, my character, body, everything. This year is already going to rock [...]

Introducing…you

I was at the Northeast Men’s Retreat a few months back and in one of the sessions we discussed what was important to us as men, evident in our conversations when we first introduce ourselves to new people. What do we usually talk about in those first encounters? Our name, where we’re from, what we [...]

Good to see everyone come in today

Feeling productive

I tend to blog here and there about lacks, deficiencies and detriments in life and work. Its always easy to write about the lows in life because more often than not, expressing them helps to cure them. Read the news, negativity, travesty, tragedy (no matter how big or how small) = headlines. Someone has just [...]

Mid day flgvdgetwdetahg

Its the mid day flgvdgetwdetahg…the time of the day where you’re mind goes crazy…either its the lunch you had, the lack of caffeine present in your system, the mental capacities of your mind extinguished or just rhgaerhah…who knows. I hate and absolutely dred this time of day. Between 2 and 4 I go into a [...]

Survivor thoughts

It was funeral that lasted 2 days. One by one we saw crowds gather around the desks of our fallen comrades.  One by one people were sent to HR to lay their heads before on the guillotine…it was surreal. Some closer than others, 28 total left our office over the course of Tuesday and Wednesday. [...]

Things I want to improve on – life edition

Seriously, Punkin Chunkin’ photos are in fact coming, but they’re not available to me at this moment and so I’m writing this instead…. Things I want to improve on, become more active in, changes I plan to make, foresee and continue on… The path back -  I have some people still left to speak with [...]

Congrats everyone, it’s Monday

I have a miserable case of the Mondays. Everything they say about Monday’s in an office environment, is absolutely true.. Actual work starts at 4:55p.m. that day, if not Tuesday entirely Coming in on time is deemed “optional” or “good for you if you can pull it off” Coffee tastes better but that’s only because [...]

Why work for free? Because its WORK

The definition of work, in a word cloud Why work for free? Why spend your time doing projects, tasks, creating logos, graphics, web pages for free? Because its WORK.  It is proven results of your ABILITY, SKILLS, and PROFICIENCY as the professional you are. When I started ContributeDesign people asked why. Why spend time on [...]

Dear Web Designer – Don’t make me think

Dear Web Designer, Don’t make me think. Don’t make me wonder, question or dare make me explore to find what I’m looking for…until you’ve pulled me first. Here are my list of demands for every site you create: Tell me what’s important, what’s not. I’m talking big and o b v i o u s [...]

Getting back into the groove | life achievement

I’ve always considered myself a fairly ambitious and goal-oriented person. Since graduating college and landing the post-college job of my dreams (realistically) I admit, I’ve been feeling really satisfied. The hunger died some because I felt I had reached my goal and so I continued blindly without setting up what will be the next supposed [...]
