I’m still on this branding warpath, and it’s become an interesting project. I’m finding that as I’m exploring who I am and want to become on a professional level, I’m really relocating a lot of the person who got lost along the way.
Slowly, it’s almost become a process of blending my professional and personal activities and beliefs into a brand that is really a more complete picture of the person I am. This works for me because I, and many of the people around me, see my professional life as an extension of who I am personally. I do many of the same things, regardless of where I am, and there really isn’t anything wrong with that. (I have the great fortune of being a teacher, one of those rare professions where people are fine if your career spills over into your personal life.)
I got to thinking about this as I was creating a character on USA’s site. I still haven’t figured out what the point of this character project is, either, but I figure anything that causes me to become even more introspective is a good thing. One afternoon at the dojo will pull me right out if I get too introspective.
Now I just have to figure out how to present everything so that it all works for me!
