Bookmarks And Turning Pages

Don The Idea Guy September 10, 2020

There will be times in your professional career and personal relationships where it is time to turn the page. Time to grow and move on to another phase in your personal development.

Yes, it might be time to turn the page — but you don’t burn the page or tear it out of the book entirely.

When you turn the page, you can revisit it in the future if you choose to do so. If you want to make it even easier to find your favorite pages from the past, you can leave a bookmark.

Bookmark the favorite pages from your past

A bookmark is a way to easily reconnect with a chapter from your past.

A bookmark may be exchanging email addresses or mobile numbers with a co-worker you want to stay in touch with when you turn the page on your current job.

Another bookmark may be to schedule a weekly or monthly video call on Zoom or Google Meet.

Bookmarks might be public events where old friends travel to gather together and catch-up (like an arts festival or comic convention or a concert by a favorite performer.

Something as simple as sending cards and letters on birthdays and major holidays is a way of inserting bookmarks in the pages of your life.

Turn The Page, But Leave A Bookmark

There will inevitably come a time when you need to progress with the story of your life and you choose to turn the page in order to live your next chapter, but don’t forget about what came before. Keep some of your great memories and important people with you always by remembering to leave a bookmark so you can find your way back when you need to recall past lessons or reconnect with the characters who made your story worth reading.

The Ugly Back

Everyone goes to the museum to admire the pretty fronts of artistic tapestries, but the ugly backs face the wall and are rarely on display. My wife decided she wanted to host a big family Thanksgiving this year. While we were in the process of cleaning up the house and putting our (my) clutter. Hapy […]

My Three Words for 2022

Several years ago I started choosing an annual trio of words to help me stay on track with my goals, focus my actions, and guide my decision making. I copied the practice from Chris Brogan and you can click on that link in his name to visit Chris’ page to read about how he chooses […]

Want hot ideas? Let the tap run.

I’ve written in the past about how I come up with some many good ideas (spoiler alert: it’s because I also come up with so many bad ideas). I’ve also shared how important it is to throw away the first dozen or so ideas you come up with because they’re not going to be especially […]
