I must confess that I secretly loathe going to conferences like this. Before hand, deep in my heart I have a belief that it will end up being an incredible waste of my time and I will spend most of my days wishing for a coffee intravenus to keep me awake. As the day of the flight approaches this feeling grows until I seek reasons to get out of the commitment.

 

I am also that same person who, once at the conference, finds it to be an amazing and profound experience on many levels. Once again this has happened. The sessions are fantastic. The content is exactly overlapping with where I am and the organizations I represent are at. In short – I am pleased with this conference so far and do not expect the experience to change in the coming days. So now I have lots of ideas and my challenge is going to be to stay focused enough when I return to develop strategies to implement. We shall see how that works.

 

As for food I think I will go with the Fat Greek because clearly a fat Greek is eating good food. I recongize the potential of this being a politically incorrect restaurant name (full name is My Big Fat Greek Buffet which I am likely reading wrong for opportunistic reasons) an all I can say is I did not name it and my apologies to any fat Greeks who read this.
