Ok, so I took some liberty with this title. It just sounded too much like a simpler time from my youth. (”Scooby, doobie, doo, Where are you?”)
Recommended Blogs:
Think Simple Now: It seemed fitting though, because that is exactly the simplicity and exuberance that springs from Tina’s writing on her blog Think Simple Now. As her readers know, she is traveling - and I know she is having a great time. But I miss her. My day is always a little richer when I have a new insight from her blog.
Pick The Brain & I Will Change Your Life: Peter from iwillhangeyourlife.com is also the editor of Pick The Brain. His articles are always insightful and well worth reading daily.
Zen Habits: Leo really sets the bar for all personal development / self improvement blogs. Read his story, it really is an inspiration to anyone who wants to live their dream, but just hasn’t “gone for it”.
Skelliewag.org: Skellie is a regular contributer for ProBlogger and also is the founder of Anywired. Her writing is conversational and informative. Quite frankly, you probably wouldn’t be reading this if it weren’t for the excellent advice that I’ve gleaned from her.
Recommended Articles:
Life Lessons from a Cranky Old Man - These days, popular wisdom says to write articles for the “scanners”. But John from John Place Online is a master storyteller. He has a creative way of expressing a personal story from his life, and articulating valuable lessons to take from them. I really think there is a place for this type of artistic storytelling on the internet. We really don’t need to can everything as if it were news.
What Would You Do? - Jason from A Miracle A Day asks an important question. “If you had no responsibilities, no pressures, no need to worry about making money, paying bills, doing chores, or taking care of anyone… what would you do?”
Chasing the Pursuit of Happiness - Tim Brownson has released an excerpt from his new book Don’t Ask Stupid Questions - There Are No Stupid Questions on The Next 45 Years. While I disagree with his underlying analogy (see the comments on the article), he makes the very valid point that sometimes we get too caught up in the stress of pursuing our goals rather than being at peace with the journey.
Playing a Round; Life Lessons from 18 Holes of Golf - Ok, so this one is a self promoting recommendation. But, it is a really good article, and has received a lot of buzz on Stumbleupon.
Enjoy - and Happy Friday!
