Katja, you have a way of simplifying your thoughts that makes even the most complex ideas make so much sense! I can honestly say that, for me, SxSW wouldn’t have been as rich an experience without you around. You are such an inspiration for me, not to mention your awesome photos make me want to go out and get a camera. Right. Now. :)

I agree with Melanie. I think this is so true in our little blog world. It’s so easy to be impressed with what others are doing, and I have to keep reminding myself to be ME! :-)

Looks like a great trip. Thanks for sharing!

It’s true: You can’t be someone else, you can only be you. I needed to hear this again today. Thanks!

Love this post and couldn’t agree more on all of those things! I really love that picture of Alyssa- what a beautiful location to take photos. Stunning!! I have decided it is time to upgrade my camera now ;)

Ah, Katja…yes, my friend, you continue to “be” exactly who I thought you were (which is a compliment, in case there’s a chance of doubt!!). I share your perspective and you’ve summarized this well. Plus, the pictures are yummy icing on the cake of your thoughts.

Well said, friend…:)

This is really great advice – thank you. Staying true to yourself – your goals, I need to remember that always, otherwise it is all for nothing, really.

Love the pic of the sky.

Hi Katja,

What a great post – I did not come to SXSW, but I met you at SocComm…
You know, as I struggle this week to get work done while my nanny is away – your post is just perfectly timed. Thank you for the sensibility in your post – as career people it is so easy to get overwhelmed with work – but I am so much happier when I “embrace the moments”.

Take care!
