All Work and No Play

All Work and No Play

On our way back from Basketball, Paul asked the team, why do you play sports? some answered with a question “why are you asking”? some said it is fun, some said I l just love basketball! Philip said something that left the entire team quit, he said ” I do school work, I prepare for my test and quizzes, I do my chores at home, I get ready for school, I have discovered my school work will always be there, it will only change later on in life to my job, my chores will always be there, either living with my parents, for now, living by myself later or living with my wife and family. There will always be something to do, but sports gives me time with my buddies, I learn the importance of teamwork in a fun atmosphere, I learn what teammate is all about, we all work together for the same goal. It keeps me fit!
I do school work, I do my chores, I code, and yes I play sport!
Let us code and play!!!
To Do List: 2019

To Do List: 2019

At lunch yesterday we talked about the year coming to an end in a matter of days. Everyone on the table remembered they made a resolution but could not remember any new year resolution they had made. That was very interesting.
We all started talking about next year, everyone said oh it will surely be different, I wondered how everyone forgot! some were confused they were no longer sure. I asked if they knew why they couldn’t remember, no one had an answer. I asked, Could it be because the resolutions were centered around self? If those resolutions were about helping others, making a change for good in the life of others do you think it will be forgotten after 10months?
2019 will soon be here, look around you, include helping somebody at least one person through mentoring, teaching, encouraging, modeling your life skills.
You can’t forget a person but you can forget all about your diet plans for the year. 
One way every developer can prepare for 2020 is to invest in someone in 2019. Our TECH community will grow. More Veterans, girls/women, kids, including retirees will be coming to Tech. It is an industry that gives everyone an option.
Pass it On.

Pass it On.

Tom my friend loves to play basketball Uncle Peter his uncle played basketball in college. This is basketball season at the school, over the weekend Tom always invited us to join him to learn more skills from Uncle Peter so we can do better in our game during the week. During our practice Mrs. Peter always yelled in excitement, ‘Pass it on Peter’ after our practice on Saturday, she said to us, Uncle Peter is passing on basketball skills so that you can turn around and pass the same skills to another person, never keep your skills to yourself, pass it on!!
I thought about passing on our passions to others. Every time I am on LinkedIn I see job opening in TECH, every day and am thinking if every Developer can share a slice of their time to share all the skills needed in learning how to code and collaborating, our TECH community will grow, the tool to take part in today’s digital World is given, A different way of thinking is taught, math skills are enhanced in kids which is a tool needed to help us in STEM. All it takes is the desire to pass it on.
Pass on your skills, pass on your passion for a kid around you, to an adult, to your friends and family.
Pass it on!
Don’t wait any longer start learning how to code today!

How was you’re thanksgiving?

What was your favorite part about Thanksgiving? We had a lot of food, the table looked like a feast, it was wonderful to have family friends over, we shared what we were Thankful for, one thing that was common was family! Time shared with family and dear friends will never be forgotten. Thanksgiving is awesome because we all count our many blessings and see there are many! When we take time to reflect on our day, we will really find something to be thankful about. Even if it’s a bad day.

What are you Thankful for?

What are you Thankful for?

In the next 24 hours, family and friends will be seated around tables to share memories
of wonderful events.
Take a minute and reflect all that you are thankful for.

Write it down and see how your attitude changes!
Happy Thanksgiving!
