View Article  Still wondering what I let myself into.........

Yes, that's right what did I agree to?

That's right I agreed to wear a Name Tag for a year but I find myself not living up to the promise fully.

I believe the reason is that there are days that I enjoy the attention and encourage others to join the social experiment. There are also days when I just want to blend in to the landscape (well try too anyway!)

But again I learnt whilst on vacation in South Florida that more people except and believe that Name Tag idea is great and most part willing to at least wear for a short period of time.

What I have found is that is when others greet the idea with open arms and show their excitement for it, it also gives me more energy and confidences to wear one.

Well that's the end of my rants today, see you soon but I will continue to wear a Name Tag when I feel it right for me.

Jon (aka Crazy Brit)

Be safe and enjoy wearing a Name Tag if only a minute, an hour, a day or a week or even long if you can do it.
