New Blog: Development In Context
Sunday, February 21st, 2010I’m excited to announce that I’ve launched a new blog I’ve been thinking about for some time. It’s not a replacement for this blog — I’m going to keep writing for both of them, because each of them deals with a different aspect of my work. The new blog is called Development In Context (or DevInContext for short).
As you may know, particularly if you’re a personal growth junkie like me, the personal development area has been the subject of some controversy of late, and many books and articles critical of the field have come out in recent years.
I think this is wonderful, because it gives us personal growth junkies an opportunity to get back to basics and understand why we’re doing what we’re doing. The goal of DevInContext is to do just that — to explore and explain some central ideas of personal development, and answer some criticisms made against them. I think personal growth has a lot to offer, and that it would be a mistake to hastily dismiss it as just woo-woo navel-gazing.
If this is a topic that interests you, I look forward to welcoming you there, and you’ll be seeing another post here within the next few days.
Best, Chris

Hi Chris, I’ll go check it out right now. I can see how you want to separate them. People expect different ideas from different blogs.

Hi Chris – Thanks so much for coming by to leave your comment on my blog. The new blog sounds fascinating. It would be great to be able to separate the woo-woo from the good stuff.
