Random thoughts…nagging questions…
by Deirdre ~ October 2nd, 2009. Filed under: Uncategorized.On professional versus personal identities online….
- Is who we are professionally that different than who we are in our personal life?
- Do we need to maintain separate identities with strict boundaries for each?
- Did the separation of personal and professional arise as a result of industrialization? Did we become fractured people when we started maintaining a separate work life and home life?
- Will social networking bring us full circle and mesh our separate identities into one?
- Am I losing my mind?

Not losing your mind – exercising it!
Questions give forward momentum to our learning.
The key is to try to find answers that work for you.

Oooh, interesting that you make the connection to industrialization. I’ll have to think on that one.

You are not losing your mind, these are great questions.
It would be so interesting to hear everyone’s perspectives on these questions. Have you come to any conclusions for you personally?
I might try to negotiate through them for myself on my blog if you don’t mind.
Cheers,
