“You’re going to reap what you sow, whether that is happiness and joy, or terror and misery. It’s your choice. Before you take an action ask yourself if you’re willing to be on the receiving end of the consequences, because someday you will be.”

Erin Pavilina

I love this quote – I think about it often.  It’s a re-post from one of my fav blogs.  It helps me make decisions and guides me through certain circumstances.  Consider it the next time you feel challenged and in need of guidance.

Can you believe it! The first month of 2010 is only 2 days away from being officially done.  So to celebrate a very successful start to a new year we thought a little dance party was needed.  Our choice of music – “Upular,” a music video for an ambient, electronic remix that samples sound clips from the popular Disney/Pixar film “Up.” – Enjoy!

Big trip this week. The team is juiced. I think this is going to be a productive few days.

Eat, drink, and BEAT NAVY! T360 is headed to the Army/Navy game in just a few. Navy has dominated the last 7 years but this year we break the curse! Tune into CBS at 230 to see the game.

What to Do:

• DO: Define your values

What Not to Do:

• DON’T: Ignore your brand
• DON’T: Half ass your brand development
• DON’T: Put your interests ahead of your users

The T360 team is connected all day, all night and all the time.  John and I constantly have late night text marathons about a multitude of different topics.  The above pic is John trying to save time by blending several text conversations into one message.  Big props to anyone that can email me our two main topics of conversation.

Oh – agency life.  I love it so.

In anticipation of a wild flu season, I took the plunge and got my flu shot.  Running an agency takes everything I have and it’s a must to stay healthy.  Coming in this morning, everyone around me was coughing, sneezing, sniffling and wheezing (more than usual).  Knowing that the experts are predicting are really nasty winter here on the east coast and very strong flu season – not to mention the H1N1 virus on top of everything else, I took the plunge.

The shot was painless, but it did pack a punch.  A few hours after the shot, I felt horrible.  Light headed, a little queasy – wait, maybe I’m pregnant.    Nah, can’t be.  So far that’s only happened to one other guy.  After a good rest last night, I’m feeling better today.  I’ll report back on how well the shot protects me throughout the season.

Now go and get yours!
