Why is this? I have a B.A. in Psychology which is another story, but I always like to people watch and study those that are successful. I learned a number of things at the conference, but I believe the number one thing I learned was to “humble myself.” Think about it. If you think you’re the best or that you “know it all” on a subject, you are frozen in your knowledge and are not looking to learn and adapt to different ways of thinking. On the other hand, if you are honest with yourself and stay open to new ideas and methodologies, the possibilities for growing in your knowledge are limitless.

Enough of my rant for now, but in short anyone looking to step up in skill level needs to step down in pride level. This blog will help me to stay honest with myself, and I hope to share with others in the web development profession or just wanting to learn about website design/development.

More to come on my lessons learned at the Voices that Matter Conference…

Later,
Chris
