The Journey Begins

Its interesting starting a new blog or a new writing project. You do not know where to begin because there is so much to say.

I guess I should start with the motivations behind this blog and why I am posting this in the first place.

Time is moving too fast. I am nearly 35 and I have done nothing that I wanted to do. I know its a little early for a mid-life crisis. Either that or I am a really late bloomer. But either way, I am seeing that I have not done one thing I have always dreamed of doing.

To give myself some credit, in the past year I have made many changes, but I think it is about time to make some more.

One of the things that I know myself to be is a teacher. I enjoy teaching. I enjoy helping people grow and develop. I enjoy learning. And in the past several years, I have even stopped doing that.

I also know myself as a writer. This is something that I have not always known. This is something I have discovered after making many forum and blog posts and seeing how people interact with what I have posted. I was even invited to become a writer on one blog because my comments to their posts were as long and as detailed as their blog posts where.

I also want to do something that makes a positive difference in the world. Not just on a small scale, but a large scale. I am not sure what that is going to look like, but I would like to find out.

And there are many many other things that I want to do.

This blog is the beginning of a journey into greatness… but it is not a journey for greatness. What I mean by that is that I am not doing it for the glory. In fact, if I can change the world without being known, that would be all the better. I don’t want fame or glory, but I do want to make a difference. And one thing that I am finding is that the only way to do that is to talk to people… to get out there and interact with people, either in person or the internet. And if I want to do it on a large scale, all the more people I have to interact with.

This blog is mostly about my personal journey. Hopefully later as I achieve more things, I will be able to tell you about some book I wrote or other great things I did.

Mostly you are going to read about the soul searching and insights and breakdowns and breakthroughs that I will have on my way to living life powerfully and living a life I love… as well as my ideas on how the world can be a better place.

And so the journey begins….
