I’m going to break one of my own rules for a second here…

The Truth
during the greatest recession in decades, and in a time when unemployment is skyrocketing, I chose to actively quit my cushy job with its salary and benefits - and incredible location, and awesome people, and even more awesome clients - and go off on my own; trusting that I actually know what I’m talking about, that my ideas, thoughts and opinions are worth paying for, and that I somehow will succeed where countless other have tried and failed.

Why now?

Because now is the best time in history to do so, and I’d run out of logical and reasonable answers to the question of “why not now?” I’d run out of excuses why I was standing on the sidelines, and as of today I start work on my dream project.

My mind still reels at the vision required to look at a vacuum and while the rest of the world sees potential and waits for change, to see a future and work to make it so.  It’s inspiring, and intimidating all at once.

…brother, it is on…

This is my friend Barret.
