One of the most rewarding parts of my year come when I take a few days to fly away to some national workshop or conference that is about improving myself as a professional. Some people look at these sorts of conferences as a nuisance or disruption to their lives and thus avoid them whenever possible. Not me, these events energize my beyond belief. I take along my leather bound "best ideas" journal and usually fill 15-20 pages with new ideas before I come home. This, plus the opportunity to meet new people who share my interests and often meet acquaintances from past events.
TBL: When you get a chance to attend a professional development conference, look at as an opportunity worth jumping at.
PS - Thanks Jim P for the great comments to the last entry. I recommend everyone goes and takes a look.
PPS - I'm heading to Canada to Wenger's cabin for a few days of snowshoeing, sauna, and beer. I'll write again at the end of the week.
