Pointing out presentation pitfalls

Do you have any horror stories you relive constantly over the presentation that went haywire?  I am failing superbly at staying within MINDFULness, the latest phenomenon not quite realized.  (remember April 2015 when I predicted on my blog OptioneerJM that adult coloring was going to catch on and why you should too?)

What disastrous presentation can you never forget or let yourself go on? Me? I did some reflection upon creating powerpoints and how this is a skill that I have under developed while critical in my lifelong learning journey, prevailing self-development, knowledge junkie crutch and continual improvement ......

 I've been spending some time self-critiquing on Powerpoint savviness ... or not?   READ more: https://optioneerjm.blogspot.ca/2016/10/powerful-points-on-powerpoint.html

Power points

This actually got me thinking. MicroSoft's "Power Point" or better known by acronym .ppt (especially helpful for the 140 character limitations of Twitter) is its own noun.

A symbol of "arriving" completely and totally in the History Books as a true innovator.  

I'll do some more checking into this and report back later on.

Triumph over struggle

This blog was originally written earlier today (Saturday, March 4, 2017) on my optioneerJM blog on Word Press ~ where I find an atmosphere of support and celebration of original writing among those who write themselves. It is the highest compliment any fledgling writer can have. Like most of us at the tail end of Baby Boomers while being drowned out by Millennials, we're trying to get ahead. Achieve success, notoriety or acclaim. Subsidize our career choices with our inner voices. To help others, to help ourselves. To exhaust our demons by writing and exhuming scars that life has left on our brains. Confidence or competence A struggling battle between what we want to express and be appreciated for our words. So many of us write to right the struggles we have fought, the wars we have lost, the lessons we have learned. Gratitude: pitiful compensation We appreciate the acknowledgement by others who are in chained to the commo...

A topic that is too judgMENTAL ::... transgenders

Too few role models: SOURCE A question was posted on QUORA and I felt compelled to respond: Why don't transgender people use the restrooms corresponding to their genitals to try and end the needless transgender bathroom controversy? It is none of our business. This reminds me of things we have to struggle with growing up::…. what IS our identity? What IS our moral standard? Should others have THE right to determine what is best for US? Almost ALL of us in the age of inBETWEENers (born 1960 to 1965, neither Baby Boomers, Generation X, nor Millennials) must REMEMBER what the biggest questions of our day were? If others forgot, I can share with you: Do you or don’t you circumcise your newborn son? SOURCE : "Boys" by William E. Rochfort Remember that? I do. Is it necessary or more to do with mental well being our our son: likeness to daddy. It was something I read avidly read about because sometimes reading becomes “PEACE of MIND”. In this inst...

Testing ... reDEFINING

Postings on the Edge a twist of words as reference to Postcards from the Edge. Kindred spirits join the journey. But first, you need to begin with me firstly by watching "Bright Lights" with Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds Take in the poignant moment when Carrie visits her dying father, Eddie Fisher, with more forgiveness than any one I've ever known. Compassionate creatures enveloped from the vessels of "Singing in the Rain" fame, Debbie Reynolds, and her daughter "Princess Leia" Carrie Fisher who wrote "Postcards from the Edge" starring Shirley McClain and young upstart Merle Streep. I watched this this afternoon after taking the HUNKster's suggestion of HBO's "Bright Lights" last night when we returned home after sharing a hearty dinner with great friends. Quality overpowers time every time Suggesting quality is not defined by length of time spent together, but in the value and peaceful-ness ...
