Week 151: 2017-01-07

Happy New Year!
What a great trip we had with my family. It was good and relaxing, and we got to do a number of different things. Of course, never as much as we’d like to, but we did do quite a bit!  My wife and I got to reflect on what we want to do in 2017, and came up with some interesting things (some of which we can’t talk about quite yet). I look forward to 2017, and am excited about what it may bring!

Words of the week:
  • Fast Start: We had a fast start to 2017. I just got in town on Thursday, and have already been in 3 conversations with clients and prospects. A sign of things to come?
  • Family: Spending time with Family was great. We have family in both Europe and the US, and we’re going to try to make more of it.
  • Simplicity: To me, 2017 is about going back to some basics. Some basics about how I work with others, in how I ask questions, and how I operate. I have a lot of possible distractions, and I need to clear those up. One such example is the number of apps that I have on my devices, and how they are inconsistent with one another.
Number of the Week:
  • 2017: 2017 is a prime number!  The last prime number year was 2011.  2011 was a pretty good year for us, so I’m hoping there’s a trend there.
