The site has under gone some changes, to represent the change in several areas. New energy and motivation surrounds each and every project, and now it's only a matter of focusing to finish off the few remaining details of the The 7th Journey project, which will begin the next stage of development. The site, now more attractive, is distinctly professional, and more lively than the dark, mysterious themes of old. This symbolically represented the early, rather mysertious nature of The 7th Journey development phase, but now as we progress further towards the publishing of the final product, the site has a matured, more professional appeal.
The T7J project is still underway, although lately my time has been taxed for various other reasons. I have solicited some reader feedback with regards to the synopsis, and I'm working to incorporate the excellent feedback I've obtained. Thank you to all that have participated in this pilot project, which at times has taken a life of it's own.
Currently, I'm also undergoing several training and certification processes, mainly in the areas of Lean Six Sigma - Green belt, Certified Process Engineering Specialist (CPES), and just finishing off my course at Ryerson University - Perspectives in Psychology.
Perspectives in Psychology was an excellent course. It focused on the Learning Procedures, Operant vs. Classical conditioning, Social cognitive, and biological perspectives. Our class had some very interesting discussions around abnormal behaviour, social behaviour, and various other topics of great interest. The final paper that I submitted was around "Transformational Leadership, and it's affects on Job Performance and Self Efficacy." I may be posting the paper in the coming weeks, for those who are interested, as I believe it ties together many ideas and concepts relevant to today's world.
I will be finishing off the year by working towards my VMWare Certified Professional (VCP) certifications, along with ITIL v3 Foundations and Expert: Continual Service Improvement certifications. Going forward I will work towards picking up further accreditation and certifications as I work towards my Information Technology Management degree. As I feel that these markers of achievements set the stage for a broad career in the Information Technology management/consulting field, with a specialization in Process Optimization and Virtualization/Consolidation through VMWare skill sets.
As this continues, I will also be opening my doors for students who are interested in learning of the system of Unarmed Combat which I train, called "The White Lotus System" (http://www.whitelotussystem.com). As I will be working with a fellow instructor, to run a series of classes which span across 2 - 4 days per month, with optional classes in between. For those who are interested, you may contact me via email.
Thanks very much.
Regards,
Robert
