Learning Something New
I recently was reminded by the events at work that I seem to have a cycle in my like that varies between 5 to 7 years. Every 5 to 7 years I seem to go through a change. Sometimes its in my life and sometimes its just just work or focus related, but its always a change ( Read more... ) -
