Back to School?
I find myself alone at home on a Friday night, half watching ESPN and half poking around the Internet looking at mostly MBA-related websites/blogs/whatnot. I can't seem to escape the reminder that so many people are going back to school these days, and can't help but feel like I'm missing out on the action. Not that I was planning to go back this soon, but it's hitting close to home as several people I know are starting their MBA programs:
- Wade at the University of Chicago
- Greg at the University of Michigan
- Will at Harvard Business School
- Milo at UC-Berkeley
I've said several times that I hope to learn quite a bit from each of them in helping to choose my path, so I'm hoping that writing it here will help keep me accountable for not losing touch. Along those lines, I've noticed a few things about myself in the past week or so that are worth noting...
- Whenever I am afraid that I won't follow through on something, I tell a lot of people about it. This way, it is easier for me to stay committed to said thing than explain to everyone why I didn't. (Moving to California is a perfect example of this)
- I am rather open to the power of suggestion. I've recently had a couple of meetings with senior plant managers who made several bold (and sometimes unsolicited) suggestions. I find myself deep in thought and infinitely more satisfied after these types of conversations. I'm not even going to get started on what listening to Republican radio has done to my head...
- I need a haircut.
