Theme Change

Theme Change About a year ago, I wrote this post about how I was trying to change what I wrote, how I wrote it, the nature of introversion and fear, and how these two nefarious elements had been holding me back.  In the post, I touched on a number of personal issues, one of which – as it turned out – was very much the theme for me last year: Editing. That theme applied to my writing, how I was running FeedBlitz, and to my personal life as well. Constantly editing was a drag. It ended up holding both the business and me back, to the detriment of both. As I was preparing for the upcoming week, which will include spending a lot of time at the HubSpot Inbound conference in Boston, I realized that the theme has changed. And it has become – drum roll, please: Transition. Both FeedBlitz and I are in transition. And, to spare you all, I’ll largely stick to the business side of things for now. Looking back, the posts that have been the most meaningful for me this year have been about change. Transitioning to a more scalable business. Hiring people. Becoming more. The changes set in motion in the Spring have already yielded much progress, and there is more goodness to come. Part of being successful in business and in life, I think, is noticing the small but important elements that keep recurring. Paying attention, if you will. And there it was, waiting for me to notice: Transition. I’m excited about this, this transition. It means that “Next” is close at hand, and that recognizing this year’s theme, while it lasts, means that I can also start to accelerate it, encourage it, perhaps even guide it, rather than simply letting it happen. So, for me and this business, the theme is transition. Can’t avoid it. Time to make the most of it. And you? What’s your theme right now, and how has it affected you, your work and your life?          • Email to a friend • Article Search • View comments • Track comments •   More Blitz Bits #FunFriday: Celebrity Mashup Edition Making the Most of FeedBlitz: The Advanced Email Template Editor (ATE) Branding: Your Name is Not Enough FeedBlitz #FunFriday: It's a Bird!

Hi!

We just wanted to let you know that International Games Day @ your library has
posted a new item, 'Talking points: Games and theory of mind'

Hello folks! This is the third of that series of more detailed talking points we
mentioned. Here's the summary from that original post:
Further, games develop and reward theory of mind - the mental models we each

UC Davis researchers discover molecular target for the bacterial infection brucellosis Posted: 15 Aug 2013 02:24 PM PDT Scientists have uncovered a potential drug target for the development of an effective therapy against the debilitating, chronic form of the bacterial disease brucellosis, which primarily afflicts people in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern countries.

Type 1 diabetes study identifies subset of patients with strong response to therapy Posted: 15 Aug 2013 02:22 PM PDT Primary results from a new clinical trial show that a discrete subset of patients with type 1 diabetes treated with the monoclonal antibody teplizumab (MacroGenics, Inc.) demonstrated especially robust response with greater preservation of C-peptide, a biomarker of islet cell function, compared to controls, suggesting that these patients could be identified prior to treatment.

Chemists devise new way to prepare molecules for drug testing Posted: 15 Aug 2013 01:15 PM PDT James Bond had his reasons for ordering his martinis "shaken, not stirred." Similarly, drug manufacturers need to make sure the molecules in a new drug are arranged in an exact manner, lest there be dire consequences.
