Much like my in last post, I've become more aware of the benefits of asking for help when it comes to developing my business.
First of all, I needed to do some evaluation of how things are currently running and when I realized that I am dissatisfied with some elements of my business, I started the think about how I could improve. I also realized that I am not an expert in everything, so I decided to ask a friend, colleague and professional coach if she would be willing to coach me through some rough patches. To my delight, she agreed and we are having lunch today to discuss.
I couldn't believe how this small act of reaching out for help completely turned my attitude around. Ever since I spoke to her, I have been focussed and productive. I guess when you work for yourself you don't really have anyone to be accountable to and perhaps that was part of my problem. All I know for sure is that I have a renewed and refreshed perspective and feel extremely optimistic that things will continue to improve. I'm thankful for Wendy even before we get started!

From one writing professional to another - but in English this time. What does textured pasta mean to you? A pasta utensil maker is using this word to describe pasta that are not flat (spaghetti, vermicelli, lazagna, etc) from the shaped ones (rotini, corckscrews, etc.). The only textured meaning I could think of was a textured wall (i.e. with stucco). What to do you think?
When I think of 'texture' I envision how the item effects my senses. I consider whether it is smooth to the touch or if it is 3 dimensional with shadow and light bouncing in various directions. Texture can also imply layers so that even a flat pasta, if layered with other items or sauces, would also be 'textured' because there was dimension to it.I would be inclined to think that all pasta is textured.
I guess being the daughter of an art teacher has me thinking in more abstract terms.
