Happy New Year

So it’s 2013. About 12 hours ago I finished up the last of my client work, sent my last invoice, and quit all my jobs. I am taking my life back.

Because I don’t want my work to make money for things I don’t believe in.

Because breathe-eat-work-sleep is not the same as live.

Because contentedness, though pleasant, gets me nowhere.

Because without risk there is no benefit.

Because I want to create things that speak for me, not for someone else.

So my work hours will stay work hours, but they’ll be for my work. I will write. Happy New Year.
