			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been studying branding this year.  When I saw Chris Brogan&#8217;s blog post on <a href="http://www.chrisbrogan.com/platform-thinking-in-personal-branding/" target="_blank">personal branding</a> a few weeks ago, I was intrigued.  I haven&#8217;t stopped thinking about it since.</p>
<p><strong>Purpose in Life?</strong></p>
<p>This really isn&#8217;t a new topic.  I&#8217;ve struggled off and on since high school to know what to do with the rest of my life.  Chris states that that we&#8217;re all damned good at something even if we don&#8217;t realize it.  What I love is that Chris then goes on to share how that one thing we&#8217;re good at can grow and transition into bigger and better branding if we manage it correctly.  Start where we are, but steer toward dreams and aspirations.  Good stuff!</p>
<p><strong>So where am I?</strong></p>
<p>Back to the original question&#8230;what am I damned good at?  This is what I&#8217;ve been wrestling with since reading Chris&#8217;s blog.  I often feel like Jack of All Trades, Master of None.  So I&#8217;ve begun creating lists of things that I&#8217;ve done, done well at, enjoyed, and I&#8217;m still not sure of my specialty.  I&#8217;ve begun asking some trusted friends what they see as my strengths&#8230;stay tuned.</p>
<p><em>What is your brand?</em></p>
