And one that certainly hits home with me. The last four months have been a roller coaster ride as I've learned to care for an infant on my own, while trying to build a business at the same time. It is a tight rope walk and someday I'll be better off for it. Using social media tools have put me at an advantage though... enabling me to stay connected to the rest of the business world as I change diapers and bottle feed behind the curtain. You are absolutely right, learning a new skill is like adjusting to having a child... it demands time, patience, and most importantly persistence. Interesting post Kathy.
