The 2014 Annual Review

December 31, 2014 By Joel Runyon 12 Comments

As 2014 comes to a close, I’ve been working through my annual review of things. I've been doing this for a few years ever since I read about it from Chris Guillebeau. You can see his here. I also quite enjoyed Nathan Barry's review here (if you're looking for another great read). Personally, as far as things go, 2014 had a lot of ups and downs. I’ll take a look at a few areas before diving into specifics of what went well & what ...

The Two Phrases You Should Never Use

December 6, 2014 By Joel Runyon 15 Comments

There are two phrases you should never use if you’re going to live an impossible life. I’ve started a mini-moratorium on using these words in my personal vocabulary and I hope you will do the same. “I’m Bored” This might be the saddest statement I’ve ever said (or heard). “Bored” Feeling weary because one is unoccupied or lacks interest in one’s current activity. You should never feel “bored.” If you’re “bored” all that means is ...

5 Years Ago

November 27, 2014 By Joel Runyon 2 Comments

Exactly 5 years ago, I spent Thanksgiving weekend slogging through half-melted snow-slush, getting chased by dogs and trying not to slip on any still-frozen patches of ice at my part-time seasonal, UPS job. I was still waiting to be picked. Still waiting for qualifications. Still wanting things to happen to me. 5 years later, with a Thanksgiving dinner overlooking the pacific ocean - I have a very, very different life. Thanksgiving on the ...
