As Dusk Settles On 2007

Written November 25th, 2007 by Paul in Business, Personal

For me, 2007 was a year of coming to terms with a lot of things in my online business and personal life. I won’t get into details because I’m considering it all water under the bridge.

2008 will be a new year, and a new chapter in my life. As the last few pages of this chapter are turned, it’s as if I can’t wait to get through it and move on to the next. Because even though 2007 was poorly written and devoid of plot, the author did a good job of building suspense for the rest of the book.

Now, like most of you, I’ve peeked at the first few pages of 2008 and guess what… they’re empty.

To most, that emptiness would be disturbing. No pre-written plot, a map with a hole in it and you’re headed right for it… like a 15th century sailor who’s been warned that the earth is flat but still sails for the edge anyway - and ends up discovering the new world.

Enough bad metaphor for now.

Those blank pages in 2008 will need to be filled, and how interesting they are depends on how passionate you are about filling them.

    Hi Paul
    Knowing you, well a bit anyway, I don’t think they will stay empthy too long. I detect a bit of “Sunday Blues” in you post. Hope you are doing well and know that you will be in a little while.
    Maybe you need a little winter brake from it all - just to re-boost your batteries so to say.
    Take care
    Arild
