No doubt a lot of us are recalling where we were eight years ago today.

As sad as that is, what I found even more startling is that I am in the exact same place I was eight years ago. Same office, same job, working for the same company.

Now I’m not complaining about that. I am truly grateful to have a job, and I am thrilled to have a job working for a company I can respect, and that respects and appreciates me. So I’m not exactly bloodying my fingers trying to claw my way out of my cubicle.

But that doesn’t mean I want to remain sedentary, either.

So, yeah. One more reminder that it’s time to step up my efforts and move forward rather than just stand still.

What are you doing to move forward in your business?

Ooh, the first post! So much pressure to say just the right thing, be just witty enough without turning off my hoards of potential readers who are just dying to click my feed button.

The truth of it is, no one reads the first post on a blog. Or the second. Or the tenth. Except maybe your mom, and since my mom’s been gone a few years, probably not even her.

There. Pressure’s off. Now I can say whatever the hell I want, right?

Well, here it is in a nutshell. I don’t know why I think I need another blog. It’s not like I don’t have enough to do already, trying to juggle a full time job with a full time Internet startup where I’m floundering around struggling to find my focus. So if you are reading this, don’t expect to get daily updates or anything. Weekly, at best, and maybe not even that. I’m making no promises here.

What I will promise is to make this blog some sort of record of my adventures in Internet marketing, blogging, and doing business online. If that’s your thing, I hope you come back.
