A thought for your day, with my good wishes …

I don’t run away from a challenge because I am afraid. Instead, I run toward it because the only way to escape fear is to trample it beneath your feet.

– Nadia Comaneci

More faces of IAAP’s #iaapsummit Faces of @iaap #iaapsummit Fun on the @IAAP #iaapsummit dance floor. The couple in the first two pics are amazing dancers. #dance #dancing Fun with friends @HawaiianEA Nora Onishi, @juanitamort, @SharonThPassion @song_ofthesouth ... just some of the impresssive @iaap leaders recognizing or being recognised Saturday night at #iaapsummit I was touched by the grace evidenced, and wanted to share this vid of Nora paying tribute to Hawaii, her home. #leadership #iaap #hawaii Am taking a couple of minutes to catch up on sharing some lovely impressions and memories already made at the @IAAP #iaapsummit. Here’s the first of a few batches. #iaap #iaapsummit #nationalharbor #friends #maryland #americana #maryland #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel Friday’s sunset in National Harbor, Maryland - I’ve had the pleasure of being here to present on cybersecurity and IR4.0, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, to terrific career focused assistants who are members of @IAAP, the International Association or Administrative Professionals. #iaap #iaapsummit #nationalharbor #sunset #ferriswheel #maryland #americana #maryland #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel Yours truly and Rosie the Riveter in National Harbor, Maryland #girlpower #rosietheriveter #nationalharbor #maryland #americana #maryland #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel An impressive show of 40 nations at the @iaaphq #sunmit2019 this morning #professionaldevelopment #summit2019 ... and we’re off! More pics and memories from @iaap #iaapsummit2019 to follow, but here are a few snaps from last night and this morning. Wonderful to see so many good people, including friends from Canada, IAAP, @ima.global and @iaapfoundation here in National Harbor. Special shout out to all IAAP’s volunteers, staff and leaders for all they’re doing to make this a great event. Just some of them - Bianca, Danielle, Jane, Lacey, Nora, Rachel, RaeLynn and Stacey - are seen in these pics. It’s been a great first day in National Harbor for @IAAP Summit 2019, catching up briefly with some friends and then over dinner with “the Dutchies”, friends and @ima.global members @jannieoosterhoff (L) and Ingrid from Amsterdam. If other delegates are wanting to explore Old Town Alexandria for a dinner out, Il Porto on King Street is close by! #friends #oldtown #oldtownalexandria #nationalharbor #iaap #ima #ferriswheel #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #ilporto #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel What do Harry Potter and Winston Churchill have in common? That would be this 55/56’ Cedar Of Lebanon tree on the grounds of Bkenheim Palace. It featured in the “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” movie. It’s believed to have been planted in the 1700s. It’s had surgery in recent years to keep it standing, and is situated with gorgeous views of the palace, the Great Bridge and Great Lake. Lancelot (Capability) Brown is credited for much of the beauty you’ll see here. #blenheim #bleinhempalace #snape #harrypotter #oxford #cotswolds #secretlondon #unesco #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces How do I love summer?

At @blenheimpalace you’ll find a pair of cannons against the backdrop of beautiful Cotswolds stone, and loads of flowers elsewhere: wildflowers, a rose garden, a secret garden and more on the gorgeous palace grounds. #historichomes #blenheimpalace #cannon #cannons #cotswolds #cotswoldstone #palace #blenheim #oxfordshire #unesco #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passion passport
