As the year comes to an end I thought I would close it out with a big “Thank You” to everyone that I come to know over the past year and to all the friends that have been there for me. This year has been a bit of a roller coaster marked by life lesson after life lesson. What’s a life lesson?
A ‘life lesson’ is one of those moments when you realize that the decisions you made got you to a situation, a place that you are going to have to work your way out of. Life lessons generally aren’t very pleasant when you are working your way out of them. However, with that said, I call these experiences life lessons because when it is all worked out I’ve got a new perspective to move forward with.
Big life lessons from year include:
1) If you make ‘extra money’ have an investment plan for it, ahem
2) Get a better tax accountant
3) When signing a contract it has to feel ‘right’, if not walk away
4) Podcasting three times a week is tough, but good for me
5) Not everyone in social networks is a friend
6) Be thankful for what I have, I worked hard to get it
7) Family comes first, being funny comes second
8) Swallowing my pride is hard but required sometimes
9) 2008 will be full of more life lessons
