Day 1 Week 3

Wow. An entire week just passed by without much worth sharing. I suppose it was just care and feeding. The grind. Stickin' to it. Whatever you want to call it. Admittedly I've slumped a bit from my initial start, though I feel I am starting to chug some momentum as I continue. My sleep has not been the greatest, and I've been drinking a bit of whiskey, not much, but enough to slow me down a bit... I should probably put that to the wayside for a bit. Winter is hard though...

I've been excited about a prospect, but my partner and I won't be able to get much work done until Spring arrives. There is a lot going on, but if we play our cards right this may be a way to work for ourselves while doing something rewarding, healthy, and creative. More on this to come.

PS - Winter is hard...

Day 1, Week 1 - Starting Off

Today is 'Day One'. Often times I find beginnings a bit overwhelming, especially when set before a lengthy task. As the saying goes, all journeys begin with a single step. Here is my first step forward on this journey. Today began early. 2 AM is my wake-up time as I do shift-work. My start time is 4 AM, which may seem terrible to some.

The commute itself provides me time to listen to a podcast or sit in silent contemplation. I draw as many positives from the situation as I can with the full understanding that this is likely not something many people would willingly commit to. I draw strength from that consideration as well. Speaking of strength, that is really the main...

And so it begins...

Hello and greetings to you all. I would like to start things off with a very truthful statement. This is not my first attempt at a blog. In fact... I have a history of fizzled out blogs behind me. While I've been motivated at various times in my life to start one I have lacked the drive and disciple to maintain any over a lengthy period of time. There was a tech blog that I had going for several months, but inevitably that blog fell to the wayside. How will this attempt be any different? Only time will tell. I have maintained the notion that the road to success is paved in failure and that continual effort moving forward is the key to getting where you want to be. To quote TV host Mel Robbins, 'Getting what you want is simple, but it isn't easy'. On that note, what is this blog really meant to be? I feel that it will serve both as a public journal and repository for my efforts going forward. So what is with the name? 16 weeks is the amount of time I've settled...
