Adieu 2010 and Hello 2011!


2010 is officially behind us. This I know because I spent my New Years Eve in the freezing cold with hundreds of thousands of other folks out on the strip in Las Vegas (I thought it was supposed to be a desert!). I couldn't possibly have missed all of the fireworks at midnight.

So I'm officially back from vacay and while I'm a bit late ringing in the new year on this site, I'm still beyond excited about 2011 and all of the opportunities that await! I have been doing lots of reflecting and planning over the last few weeks and a lot less writing as a result, as I'm sure you've noticed. I'm pumped about some of the things I've got going on right now, some of which you'll be getting word of very soon!

Overall, 2010 was a great year for me. It was full of lots of challenges, but most importantly it was full of tremendous growth. About a year ago I decided that I wanted to do more than just randomly write thoughts on my personal blog. After a few months of thinking it through, I kicked off this blog and dove right into a blogging challenge in August.

When I look back to the progress I've made since then I'm proud of myself. I've started taking my love for writing seriously by challenging myself to write more regularly than I ever have before - with this blog being the most significant outlet for my passion.

To start the new year off right I find it fitting to share the top 10 posts of 2010... a combination of those with the most views and my personal favorites:
