Freeing your mind

marc
As I come to the end of an Easter break with my family, I am reminded of the importance of getting away. Often we just live from moment to moment without stopping to just enjoy where we are and the company of those most special to us. The "getting away" or the changing of focus is the key. Whilst I was getting away physically, I was also able to free my mind from the normal toil of work and business and this enabled me to see other opportunities and be creative.  Sometimes to get the focus we need, we have to remove ourselves from the usual, the ordinary.  You have to live outside the box to see outside the box! I think the same can be said for our training. Try new things, remove yourself from the "same old, same old". Take a few risks with new activities. Invite your students to make suggestions to the program. Use new technology. Free your mind of the ordinary and try something extraordinary. You'll be glad you did.
