Optimizing your Resume is like Optimizin...

I’m trying to optimize the layout and content of my resume to make it more obvious what my skill set and competencies are. My previous ones where not very specific to project management or marketing and haven’t got me very far. I do believe the lord leads us where he needs or wants us, but I also believe you don’t get places without putting in some energy. God doesn’t approve of idle hands and helps those who put in the effort to get where they want to go. An old chinese proverb says a man who rises before the sun and goes to bed after dawn is...

A Masters Degree in Ethnography, Anthrop...

I’ve always wanted a doctorate degree. Dr. Desarae A. Veit sounds good, no? I just got off the phone talking with Dr. Steve Hackenberger of CWU about getting involved in masters program. My current background is a little diverse with an associates in science (studied aviation technology, marine biology and radio television broadcasting) then transferred to Iowa State University to get my bachelors in Art and Design with a Minor in Military Science. Since college I’ve studied personal branding, social media and have built a career in communications. I work...

George, Washington City Counsel Meeting

George, Washington City Counsel Meeting

I went to my first George City Counsel meeting. It ran long. 3.5 hours long for fewer than 10 talking points. I found some of the issues interesting, but getting to know a city at it’s core is interesting to me. Despite the bursts of boredom, I think I might go back next month. I like the idea of having a part in the city I’m living in, and you only get to help if you are present. Being a good community member is a lot like being a good parent, in that it takes caring, well meaning, and over 50% of it is presence. Presence of mind, body and a helping...

Stay True to the Topic – A mixture of Mistaken Identity and Misrepresentation

Stay True to the Topic – A mixture...

Out of respect for the author I wont mention who wrote the book or the book title in this post. As a learning experience I think I’ll just vent my review on why I didn’t enjoy this book. Why I made it through most of the book is another post all together, I’ll thank audio books and the fact that I can tune out most of the bs. The author is a lady, with a high-pitched voice, the deep kind of voice that reminds you of someone who has spent most of their life smoking. The majority of the book is just self promotion for the rest of her books, under the...

Interested in Self Promotion?

Would you be interested in writing a post for my site or for AgencyCouture.com? If you are you’ll be allowed to also add a two sentence paragraph at the end of the post promoting yourself and/or services. This wouldn’t cost anything and would benefit both of us. Make sure your post is between 200-1000 words. Please get in touch with me first to discuss topics. You also need to review the post thoroughly for spelling and grammar. Would you be interested in having me write a guest post on your site? Would you be interested in help updating your website,...

Artistic Anguish

Artistic Anguish

In a country that is predominantly modeled around a nine to sixteen hour work day how do we separate ourselves from the path of struggling success? Let me rephrase that, how do you separate your personal goals and happiness from your daily struggle with work success? Model of Success. Most people have goals or an ideal model for what they consider their industries model of a successful work life. For book authors that would likely be a best seller, for actors it would be an Emmy or an Oscar, for a painter it may be to have a piece of art be purchased for lots of money...
