Trick or Treat. The Year In E-Mail.

by Kim on October 17th, 2006

Every year, as soon as I start to see Halloween decorations, I begin to examine the past year in terms of my goals, my accomplishments and my disappointments.

I know we still have several months to go before year-end, but I can’t help reflecting — maybe it’s the shift in temperature? (And when did those goofy blow up balloons become so popular?)

I discovered recently, that my saved e-mails also offers an opportunity for me to reflect:

  • The shameless self-promotion note to the editor of Vogue (Thanks for nothing Ms. Wintour.)
  • Ideas that never came to fruition.
  • The horrible missives between my colleague and myself.
  • The notes that should have never been sent, after a fine bottle of Pino Noir.
  • The one-word notes?! Thanks, sorry, whatever.

But thankfully, my past year in e-mail also shows the history of some of my successes: A feature piece in More Magazine, a prestigious stationery award, and a very distinctive debut at an industry trade show and most recently learning how to sort of blog.

And there are 3 (well, 2.5) more months to go…isn’t that something wonderful to to relfect upon?
