Hola! I just returned from a 3 weeks trip to the Dominican Republic. I planned this visit in order to refresh, re-set, and get much needed rest from the NYC weather. I figured if I had to be indoors, I'd do it at my parents' home where there's plenty of outdoor space full of tropical plants and aromatic fruit trees. I was saddened I arrived too early for ripe mangos, avocados, and passionfruit. On the bright side I did get to smell the fragrant mango flowers and see teeny tiny baby mangos as they were budding.
While I was there I completed a course and now I'm certified Master Project Manager from the American Academy of Project Management! One important thing I learned is that, even before I started the program, I was already a project manager and so are you! What does this mean? Well, project managers plan, execute, monitor, control, and close projects. Think about it: Your life is full of projects. That vacation you planned- yup that was a project. That apartment move? Mmhm, a project. The difference is that project managers plan everything in advance instead of doing it on the fly.
This made me think about a question a friend asked me early in my project management course "How are you going to combine project management into your offerings?" at the time I had no clue, but now I see that the Moonthly Circles are a Life Design Project. We examine the energies at hand, make intentions, set goals, analyze the tarot cards, release what no longer fits, express gratitude, and close-out the moonth to make room for the next cycle!
