Still alive, but, really, I’m just barely hanging on.

I need to make a commitment to de-clutter my life, commitment-wise. I’d like to have time to enjoy the important things in my personal life: relationships, learning, nature, reading, writing, and exercise. But I’m letting the important things from my professional life dominate my whole being. Those things from my professional life are very important (student success programs and student success in the classroom in particular), but I feel my attention there is subsuming the rest of my life.

It’s time to be smarter about how I deploy my time and resources.

If you hear from me again before December, that’d be a sign I made a change.
