Today, delve into delicious world of Urban Monk. A blog by Albert Foong focused on developing one’s self through emotional mastery, is something not to be overlooked. I’ve previously mentioned Albert on Modern Worker, but for the new readers, I wanted to serve up a link once again. I had a particularly tech-intense day yesterday and with keeping some Urban Monk reading in mind, I was able to maintain sanity throughout an insane amount of electronic Murphy’s Law.

Your goal for today: Read and comment on at least one post at Urban Monk

Albert at UrbanMonk is about to whip your creativity into shape. That’s right; join me in reading his post “5 weeks to developing the magic of visualization“. Don’t have a job that requires creativity? Pish posh, we all need to be somewhat original in our work, and this article at the online temple of emotional wisdom is a great pit stop on the road to career enlightenment.

Get ready to boost the mental aspect of your life by reading Priscilla Palmer’s post on being the person you’ve always wanted to. This weekend was an exciting one with the Personal Development List coming about, and out of it I found many new blogs to read and learn from.
