Shari Downhill Blog: February 2008
http://sharidownhill.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 6, 2008. Beyond the “Pen”…. Most of us define who we are by what we do. That makes sense to me since that’s the interface we have with others and the world. However, I also realize the two aren’t inextricably linked. “What we do” is only a descriptor, an onramp, an invitation to others to “come into our parlor” and get acquainted with us. So, welcome to my parlor…. What I do…. The last time I remember shedding tears in front of a keyboard was in my “ Beginning Reporting. 8221; class a...

Thursday, August 26, 2010. Platform Resolutions for Writers 2010. Before writers establish an author platform, they typically establish a writer platform.

Your passion of the moment should...

Friday, May 21, 2010. Where have you gone Dr. Seuss? Four words that rankle me…“There is no hope.”. Too many people; Too much pollution; Not enough time; Too much greed; Too much…Too little…Too much…Too little…On and on like a pendulum it goes. Oh Dr Seuss, where are you when I need you? 8220; Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple. 8221; Seuss chortles in my ear. Then something happens to get my attention, to pull me out of my early morning depressed stupor. In my face. I...

Shari Downhill Blog: December 2008
http://sharidownhill.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 20, 2008. A Critique of Keynesian Economics. Can I just say right now that I adore John Nash? I'm embarrassed to say that before I watched "A Beautiful Mind". I had no idea who Nash was. And, until our current recessionary woes, I also had never heard of Keynesian Economics. Well, I have now. The following is an excerpt from a piece (presentation, class materials, etc.) Nash has on file via his faculty website at Princeton. Of financial enterprises domestic to the state. It is difficul...

Sunday, May 2, 2010. Withholding judgment Finding Solutions to Teenage Bullying. The case of a bullied teenage girl who took her own life has grabbed attention across the U.S. South Hadley has become a fish bowl with thousands of harpoon pointing fingers demanding retribution – fingers pointing away from the only real solution. Only by accepting personal responsibility can we heal and effect change in our own communities and homes. That's a solution. How could I say this? 8230;and as adults? So, now what?

Shari Downhill Blog: The Meditation Hour - Starting the Day Well
http://sharidownhill.blogspot.com/2009/09/meditation-hour-starting-day-well.html
Monday, September 14, 2009. The Meditation Hour - Starting the Day Well. Arising early in the morning has never been one of my favorite things to do. But there’s something about the stillness of the early hours that actually helps me through the rest of the day. I have been meditating for a little over a year now using Bill Harris’ Holosync and Centerpointe Institute. Before using Holosynch I had a hard time allowing myself to fully relax for my meditation period. Using Holosync. Jill Bolte Taylor's Powe...

Shari Downhill Blog: The Expanding Social Media Universe
http://sharidownhill.blogspot.com/2009/09/expanding-social-media-universe.html
Sunday, September 13, 2009. The Expanding Social Media Universe. Just a few short months ago Twitter was confounding to me. I had no idea why ANYONE would even care about it. Now? I’m engaged in a several week long online social media class learning not only about Twitter, but about Facebook, LinkedIn, social media triangulation, strategy and planning. The first question most of us seem to be asking is: Why should I even CARE about social media as a serious business marketing strategy? On my name alone&#...
