Aggressively pursuing a dream is the only way to write your own reality. Documenting my path of turning dreams into investments and success!
This has been a big week for me in terms of milestones. No, no, I’m not loaded with passive income or hit a monthly income mark. And while I’m thrilled the Patriots won their fourth Super Bowl, that isn’t really what I’m here to talk about. Earlier this week, I turned 30. Today, Write Your Own … [Read more...]

Hey guys, just a quick note! Switching my theme and the look of my website over the next week starting today. As can be expected with such a change and with a rookie blogger like myself, I'm liable to screw things up! With that being said, I hope the new look helps to make things cleaner and … [Read more...]
WARNING: If this seems a bit over the top with praise and adulation, that's because it is! I couldn’t be happier with my new website hosting situation! I am such a blogging rookie. If veteran bloggers hazed newbies I’d end up with my head shaved prancing around in a pink tutu. That being said, … [Read more...]
No seriously, proofreading sucks. I am a numbers guy at heart. Give me a spreadsheet and I will be a happy and contented man. I even have t-shirts that tout my love for Excel. But I digress; writing itself isn’t always a struggle for me, but the associated proofreading and editing of that writing? … [Read more...]
