"You can only spend so much time in one place, the more that I wait - the more time that I waste."
Those
words come from a Madonna song entitled "Jump." And
the ranks of the 2009 workforce can relate. Many are "jumping" into a new career, a new job or a new
business while trying to effectively manage the "work life merge." WorkLifeNation.com explores this concept through the lens of Success, Serenity & Significance.
Our Work Life scenario is evolving, and that's the theme of the first Work Life
Nation webisode which launched in September:
Work Life Culture, Post-9/11 Click here to watch.
15 more episodes are coming down the pike which feature prominent work life, career and social media gurus including Jonathan Fields, Pamela Slim and Chris Brogan. Also - coverage of More Magazine's Reinvention Convention.
 Communicating your brand or business message as you "jump."
When you jump into a new career or work path you are essentially
reinventing yourself and your brand. That might call for a new approach
to articulating your personal brand or business message.(read more on this)
It's not just talking points, it's your personal narrative; your story
- through your lens - and in your voice. At the end of this newsletter
there's a special offer on my Media Manifestation training program.

Out
of chaos, inevitably emerges opportunity. We're all a little more
conscious about our work life. For many, work is emerging as a more
purposeful vocation; aligned with ones passion and values. I'd love to
hear your stories at WorkLifeNation.com.
Happy Holidays! Judy
