For the Love of it, Nothing Less…
Wow… What happened?
I am making some changes around here. In time I will probably tidy up the design of this blog, but the main change will be me. Leave The Office initially came about because of my desire to literally leave my office life behind. Anyone who has followed this blog at any time may already know that from the original idea my writing developed into a kind of personal growth account.
Well I think any personal writing counts as personal growth, unless one always says the same thing all the time and I feel that in trying to keep things "inspiring" or "profound" I am indeed finding myself with less to say because I feel like I need to come up with better words on any given day and sometimes even find myself writing something, which I have, in a round-about way said before and then I end up not posting anything for a few weeks, so…
I’m going to write what I like, when I like from now on. This is a personal blog, which I will contribute to when I feel I have something worth reading, to write. No more worrying about how many people are visiting to read or if my rankings are slipping or not. No more wondering if my traffic has increased from last month. I still believe I can provide some inspiration to certain people by just putting down my own thoughts and insights and I do know that I will have success stories to tell along the way, which will inspire. If I didn’t believe that then it would be a pretty meaningless existence wouldn’t you say?
So I guess my intention is to lay off the worry of not having posted for a few weeks and just enjoy what I do, when I do it. I started about four other blogs after this one and I just haven’t been able to keep them all going. One is enough! Websites are ok, but several blogs is a different story.
I just hope I’m doing the right thing….. I am aren’t I?… Yes I do believe I am. I’ll be focusing my attention on my music production and my website PowerBook Studio… It’s about time.
Now, off to play my guitar.

Yeah thanks man…
I have no intention of quitting, just re-evaluating how I can actually be of value. After all that is what we’re here for.
I actually had a fantastic idea for a project, which is intensely challlenging that I intend to start very soon and that may give me the thing I have been looking for to put into a meaningful website, encompassing my natural talents and interests. I think writing this blog and starting other sites has led me to this point, so none of it has been a waste of time.
Oh and while I’m at it I want to really thank you Digital Nomad for sticking around and showing your support. I really appreciate it.

Well Rob, I think you have probably noticed lots of folks we visit have cut back, or even quit.
I too see it as part of a process. You have to look at life as adventure. I like the attitude you present.
In many aspects we are on parallel paths.

Thanks for the support. I only just realized that I’ve been running this blog for one year now and I’ve actually learned a lot about myself.

Yes you are doing the right thing. I think many people are coming to the same conclusions about blogs and blogging.
Don’t quit entirely though. And stay in touch.
