More than a living

Okay. So here we are. Working from home.
And you, being the smart cookie that you are, have already done your darnedest to either comply with–or refute the necessity of–my “Top 5 physical requirements for working from home.”

Hopefully, we’ll get back to posting a bit more, soon.

I ran into a colleague, yesterday. We hadn’t worked together in a long time.
“You probably don’t know this because I subscribe via RSS,” he said. “But I read your blogs.”

On one hand, we’re in the business of helping you focus. Helping you find perspective. And helping you get the most out of you. Helping you find meaning.
On the other, we’re trying to help you identify the primary barriers […]

Or don’t. But she’s going to be posting here, now. So, I thought I should introduce her.
Toby and I think she makes a sterling addition to the team. And we’re hoping you agree.
Amy and I have worked together, off and on, over the past–what, Amy?–seven or eight years?
She’s a brilliant product manager with a diverse […]
