One very good way to get out of a funk is to help others.
I did a fun thing today – I went to my best friends mothers house to set up a wireless network and help setup a new computer. It was so much fun for me. Her excitement about “getting connected”, to be able to email her family and friends from wherever they travel.
I love being around folks that are excited about technology, that want to use it to connect with people. I have so much patience when the folks I’m helping are alive with energy, excited about “new stuff”, and clearly appreciative of just a bit of help. With my help, she is now connected with her family – her kids… the most important part of her life.
So, now I’m home, on a Saturday night working on a demo. But its all worth it because I had a fabulous day today.
