When I look back on 2007 with the same point of view in my last post, I see the struggles and challenges; the disappointments and heartaches. But each time I blink, I see the hopes, the dreams, the successes, the delights, and the magnificent moments that have been the oil in the cogs of the every-day grind.
I have a wonderful family, and a magnificent wife. She is my dream come true (a story I will have to tell another time). I have solid skills and abilities. I have vast experience in a variety of areas, and I have mastered many different skills and knowledges. In many ways, I can "run circles" around others of similar age in my fields of expertise and I am often in a position where I am consulting with them and giving my advice.
I know that I am able to master virtually anything I set my mind to. I have done it many times. And because I can do that, I have a wide variety of skills and abilities in so many different and unrelated areas.
This year is going to be the year that I begin to bring all those skills, talents and abilities into focus together to create freedom for my family. Financial freedom, and freedom with my time.
And once I have walked that path, I want to show others where I have walked and see if I can teach them what I have learned to find that health, wealth, and happiness I have found.
Happy 2008 everyone! It's going to be a GREAT ONE!
