CHANGE in a time of remembrance
September is my birth month, so it has always been a month of full of contemplation for me. I was a New Yorker who, until the end of January, 2011, worked on Wall Street for more than 15-years. Thus, the occurrences of September 11th have made this time of remembrance all the more prevalent for me.
This year, the state-of-mind most prevalent for me is CHANGE and the manner in which I’ve implemented it over the last 10 years. So, this post is about honoring the people I’ve lost, not the sadness that I still feel over not having them in my life. Instead, I’ve chosen to write about CHANGE.
For 10 years now, on September 11th, we’ve see an abundance of media images illustrating that day. Personally, I avoid them. Instead, I focus on my own good memories about the people I lost.
Today, I am in the midst of my annual thought processes, I am present to the changes I’ve put into place over the last 10-years. I completed undergraduate and graduate school, started my own company, and recently relocated to Phoenix, Arizona and am working in the realm of one of my passions: working with attorneys.
My vision for all of us feeling moved on this day is to bask in the memory of people we’ve lost by ‘riding the wake of their spirits’ and create, re-create, prosper & love each other fully.
Heather Morse over at the Legal Water Cooler made mention of CHANGE in her article “Best Quote Ever“.
Heather’s looking at the speed that we communicate now vs. only 7-years ago, and if legal marketers are ready take to take it on…
Honoring the memory of my friends and family who have passed, and all those young spirits surrounding me, I’m going to shift this conversation into one about quality of life aka “business development and lifestyle”.
Heather’s right on point here…
I began educating attorneys about how social media works and the importance of it for their firm’s growth more than 3-years ago. When I realized that what they needed was not only more information, it became obvious to me that I could not provide them with the services that supported their needs as a sole-proprietor. This is why I implemented CHANGE, and began working as an Advisor at The Rainmaker Institute.
If you are an attorney or a marketing person working with a law group, your time is best spent practicing what you have mastery in, not talking on Facebook all day! The Rainmaker Institute provides knowledge and Done-For-You services of Blogging and Social Media and Customized Newsletter Writing services that attorneys need.
Please give me a call at 480-648-2628 if you’re seriously ready to take on CHANGE. I look forward to working with you on your firm growth goals and putting a plan into action!
