How to Start the Big Project You've Been Putting Off - Peter Bregman I want to write a screenplay. I wanted to write one last year, but other work took more time than I expected, and I kept pushing “write screenplay” off my to-do list. I know I’m not alone in struggling to make incremental progress on long-term projects or goals. How do you get started when you have “all the time in the world”? Maybe you have a project with no deadline, like my screenplay. Doing something big and important is rarely as simple as just getting it done. I know the basic advice: break the work into smaller, more manageable chunks, focus on the next small step that will move you forward, set intermediate deadlines. It’s good advice. Because, ultimately, the reason we procrastinate on a big, long-term project isn’t just because we have too much time or don’t know where to start. We procrastinate on that big project precisely because it’s important. I’ve never written a screenplay. I’m afraid. My screenplay isn’t just mundane work; it’s work I care deeply about.

Many small business owners I encounter are either too busy for social media, or they don’t truly understand Facebook, Foursquare, or Twitter. I’m not a social media expert. Over the past few years, I’ve made it a point to explore and understand the social web around me. 1. Social media has little to do with you; it’s all about your audience, customers, or whomever you’re trying to reach. Not sure where your customers are on the social web? 2.

Les TIC, le TBI et le RÉCIT La semaine prochaine, j’assiste à un atelier RÉCIT ayant pour titre Le tableau blanc interactif (TBI) dans le paradigme de l'apprentissage. Je m’y suis inscrit surtout par curiosité parce que TBI et apprentissage sont deux termes qui m'apparaissent contradictoires. Me tromperais-je ? Je m’explique. Un tableau blanc interactif est essentiellement un outil d’enseignement. Et tout le débat est là, car on m’a souvent répété que ce n’est pas parce qu’un élève écoute un prof qu’il n’est pas « actif » dans ses apprentissages. Une minorité (d’après mes observations) ne sont pas de cet avis. Le problème est que même les tenants du paradigme de l’enseignement nous disent croire aussi à l’élève constructeur et me racontent souvent qu’il n’y a pas contradiction entre ces deux positions. À cet égard, le TBI est une immense perte de temps, car, pendant qu’une ou deux ou trois personnes s’en servent, les autres doivent ÉCOUTER. Et le RÉCIT dans tout cela ?
