"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step".
A famous quote from a famous Chinese philosopher that sums up the beginning of my blogging career. I know, many of you established bloggers who are (hopefully) reading this may be thinking, "awefully late to the party, Shappell". Yes, it is true, and although I am a firm believer in being early to most things I suppose I am taking the "better late then never" approach to blogging.
I never really thought of myslef as a writer. After all, I never thought I had very much to say of any importance, but after reading far to many twitter postings to count from the likes of Patrick Larkin (@partickmlarkin) and Eric Sheninger (@NMHS_Principal), I realized that true educational leaders must be a part of the "bloggasphere", "Twitterverse" and other social networking environments. By the way, if you are reading this and you are not following the two aforementioned school leaders...what the hell are you waiting for? Great stuff!
I hope you read, I hope you comment (like or dislike...agree or disagree), I hope you share, and I hope you take this journey with me as part of my professinal learning network. Follow me on Twitter: @robshappell, e-mail me at robshappell@gmail.com, or just check in from time to time on Adminsanity. A thousand miles is one hell of a journey. Why not walk together?
