Don’t quit your day job is really great advice

wealth
after retiring, they've never had to work another day

Don’t quit your day job is really great advice. And all I can think about is how lucky I am to have a day job that allows me to do work that matters.

Count your blessings if you are working hard at something that matters. Consider getting out if your not.

Happy New Year 2012!

Now showing, our dreams and hopes from 90 days ago.

Assuming you came here from jeffnoel.org, by clicking Next Blog. But I’ll say it again just in case – all Mid Life Celebration April 2012 posts have been written 90 days in the past.

That means as I type these words, it’s New Year’s Day. For real. 🙂

On New Year’s Day, we dreamt some ambitious thoughts for this year to be better than 2011. How’s that working out?

PS. I dreamt of this experiment – writing about today’s wishes for the future  -and then checking in when the future arrives, to see how it ended.
