One wonderful aspect about working for myself is that if I choose to further my education on any topic I choose. I don’t have to ask anyone permission. I love school, and I love learning, so this is perfect for me.
However, today I am tired. I just finished up my first semester of graduate school. I am majoring in Human Environmental Services with a concentration in Interactive Technology. It is an exciting field and one most of us who work on line already know a lot about – or at least we think we do. I am tired because I was up all night long thinking.
I think my brain might explode with all the new information I have floating around in my head. It will germinate there for a bit, and then I will figure out how I can add value to my offerings from what I have learned. But first, it will cause a few sleepless though productive nights.
One thing that I love to do is teach others how to do what I do. Not necessarily Virtual Assisting, but article marketing, working with WordPress, social media and that type of thing. So, with that in mind I am going to teach a class at the Life Long Learning Institute (hopefully in the spring) about blogging and social media.
Check at your local community college or university to see what programs they offer. You might be surprised to find out that there are classes you can take and things that you can learn, no matter how successful you are today, you can always learn more.
