Welcome!

Welcome to my blog!  Thank you for checking this out and I hope you will return!

This has been a long time in coming.  I have thought about writing a blog for a long time and definitely planned on starting this in January 2018, when I left a corporate career to determine what is next.  I will share more of my journey to where I am today along the way.

Why a blog?  I have written extensively over the years, mostly in journal form (both paper and digital) and while that  is primarily private, it will undoubtedly serve as a foundation for future posts as well.  As much as the private journal has been helpful to me personally I have also wanted to begin to share some of my thoughts and ideas with others as well.  In addition, I have been reading Seth Godin’s blog and books for years and have been inspired by his recommendation to start a blog to both change how you “see” the world and to build the discipline of “shipping,” in this case, putting my words out into the world.

I expect that this will be a work in progress both in terms of content and design, sharing personal reflections, experiences and opinions.  It may be that over time, themes will emerge and my focus may spotlight some areas more than others, based on events, interests and feedback.  But for now, I am going to keep it wide ranging.  Part of that is very practical, for me anyway.  One of the reasons for waiting so long to start is that I was trying to figure out all of that in advance, and in doing so, I never started.  So today I just decided to start and take one step at a time.  Not sure why it took me so long to remember that that is the only thing that has ever worked for me anyway.

Again, welcome and thank you for reading!
