Reaching Goals and Feeling Winded

My partner Julie Roads wrote  a wonderful blog post recently about observing her sister-in-law running the Boston Marathon. As we approach the end of April, I feel like I've run a marathon and when I look back it's no wonder:

• I published two eBooks of collected works. I have a 3rd, written with Julie Roads (all original material), which we are hoping to release this week.
• I launched a new web site with Julie Roads called socmedia101.com (designed by the incredible Shauna Callaghan).
• I bought a Flip camera, shot video and posted my first video on YouTube.
• I had my first public speaking engagement when I spoke on a panel on Social Media at the end of February.
• I shot my first video interview, which was presented at the Buying and Selling EContent conference earlier this month.
• I redesigned this blog with a custom header, new color scheme and new type faces with the design expertise of the fabulous Doug Eymer.

All the while, I publish on average 3 times a week for my DaniWeb TechTreasures blog. I write and produce the weekly FierceContentManagement Newsletter and I have a steady tech writing client.

I also have a family and I have to balance all of this and keep my priorities straight, which is not always easy when you are juggling this many balls in the air.

So if I'm feeling a bit winded as we close the first third of the year, I hope you'll understand. I've been a tad busy.

Congrats! Looks like a lot of things are coming together for you at once.

Speaking engagements are something I have set for myself as a goal for the future on the topics of personal success, well-being and Health & Fitness.

I know not the same topics as you but nice to see someone else realizing their goals. Inspires me and I'm sure you don't mind the occasionalpat on the back. :)

Best of luck,
