I know it’s been a long time since I got on here and chatted with you all. My days at the office have been really long and by the time I get home the last thing I want to do is turn on my computer again and write more. Most nights I feel like I don’t even have the brain power to put a coherent sentence together much less a whole new article.
I have been working with some of my readers to put together a series of writings by you, the readers. In a few weeks there will be an article posted written by a paralegal at a law firm in Florida. My goal with this blog has always been to promote the profession and the professionals. As paralegals, we can use all the help we can get to tell others about us and about what we do. So, if you want to be featured and and tell others about you, what you do, what you like or not like about the profession, please send me an article and we can work together to highlight you and your achievements.
This blog is written for you and now it’s also written by you. I’m super excited about this new series and look forward to learning about each and every one of my readers.
Thank you all so much for your support all these years and for you patience when life gets the best of me and I go missing for a few months. I will try to be better but right now I’m not sure I can promise an article every day.
Another thing I’m thinking about is to do a new feature about how manage my time, plan my day and organize my crazy busy life. Between my fundraising (I am currently working on a non-profit for women and girls), my day job (working at the legal department of the financial firm), my personal life (which honestly has taken a back seat) and this blog (which is so far list) and my planner creations (I’m a paper person and I really love planners and planner functional decorations) I have a lot of balls up in the air. Sometimes things fall through the cracks and I’ve learned that I cannot beat myself up for allowing that to happen once in a while. All I can do is make sure that when I do something I do it well and I’m providing a benefit to someone. If I can accomplish that I declare it a win.
So, the next couple of weeks you will some changes, some additions in the format of the posts and maybe some added pages to encompass all these areas of my life in one spot. I think that will make it easier. I will ensure that I keep them all in separate categories so as to not make you read things you are not interested in reading.
Looking forward to being back more often and engaging with you all more one on one basis. I do hope you get involved.
Thank you
Ana
