So, the day starts with me walking into the conference hall, turning on the good ol’ Dell laptop to find every single network connection will not work.. I figure a restart will solve all issues – WRONG. This leads me to find out my battery has pooped out and a restart has killed all the battery life I previously had. So, instead of being able to type and blog while I’m there, I’m forced to use the historic pen/pad method, and blog later. So, I start off with saying I LOVE MY MAC’s AND HATE MY PC’s.
The sessions today were good, the key to this conference this year is Passion. As we saw, all of our speakers were very passionate about their presentations. A few things I took from the early sessions were that passion drives what we do, work or personal wise. Here are some good quotes:
“If you are passionate, never stop questioning everything, including yourself.”
“Rome wasn’t built in a day.. Nor was Rome built by one person.”
and my favorite, which I think I shall incorporate into my life is “Embrace the unknown – Fear is opportunity”
The sessions for today are over, and we will now be testing our rubber legs to see how much more walking we can do at a 90 degree angle. I personally, am starting to feel the burn! I will have more photos next post, as we finally got batteries for my camera (since my iPhone is too bashed to take pictures – thanks Fahrenheit).
