I’m in my late 40’s and still feel like I’m in research and development for my life. And I’m thinking it will continue to be this way. It’s actually the best part of being an idea person and being creative, everything is research and development. That’s my excuse for living on youtube and pintrest, binge watching Ted Talks and reading. It all gets filtered and funneled into everything I do. Even when I feel like I’m not doing anything, I’m doing it with years of research and development behind me. I think back on all the things that got me here, to this time and place, I realize that I’m doing what I’ve always done, but now it’s on purpose. All the years of research and development have created purpose, made me determined, given me the moxie to share my research and what I’ve developed. I hope to return some inspiration back into the flow.
