One Year Anniversary

My first post here was on May 20th, 2010.

Which means this blog is 1 year old today. What do you get a blog for it's birthday?

The most important significance of this anniversary is that I made The Leap around the same time as starting this blog.

No more 9 to 5 jobs. Building my business instead.

I dare not imply now whether the expriment has "worked" because we're far too early in the endeavor... however:

The fact that the experiment was initiated is a raging Success in itself.

Also worth nothing:

In the beginning, I hypothesized that forcing myself to consistently blog would help my songwriting.

Joe ages 0-25: composed 4 songs
Joe in past year: composed 15 songs

The quality of the songs doesn't even matter. I'm not hung up anymore. I can finish them now. I couldn't before.

I want to keep this up. I want to be prolific. I want to leave so many words and songs and pictures scattered around the Earth that I will live forever.
