Of 100

Wow. 100 blog posts.It’s been an interesting journey.When I started out on this, I was determined to use the blog as a vehicle. Something to build my confidence, to understand women, to get out of my self-imposed emotional exile, to challenge myself and my beliefs, and to try new things.I think it has succeeded.I can absolutely state that I am a different person today when compared to where I was. Well, I’ll rephrase that. I am the person that I am supposed to be. One that is less inhibited, less shy, and no longer compensating for a lack of self-esteem.I was brilliant as coming across as confident whilst dying inside. This is no longer the case. You now get what is real and what you see. I hope.Understanding women? hmm. I’m just wondering if that is like trying to walk to the top of an Escher staircase. Still, it is fun getting to know them. Wonderful, mysterious creatures, that for the most part look pretty and smell good!I’m now off the couch emotionally. I have met many fantastic people who have added so much to my life. I am rich in friends now.Since September 2010, I’ve learned to cook. I’ve travelled NZ. I’ve dated. Actual dates. With women. Actual for-real women.I’ve explored Mens Health which is something that most 40+ year old men should explore but generally avoid like the Bubonic Plague.I’ve also discovered what topics people like to read about and what topics make them go ‘meh’.I’m wondering how I should evolve this blog. Shall I stick to the path I’m on? Shall I add more sales/marketing/business ideas? Shall I talk up tech/IT?There is a lot of material I haven’t written about for the simple fact that I do respect the privacy of those that would be mentioned.I have much to consider.But to you guys, thank you. Thank you for reading. Thank you for contributing through comments and feedback. Thank you for inspiring posts through conversations that we have.I wouldn’t be where I am if not for you.- S
