Thank You and I Do Apologize

Thank you for reading these blog posts. I do enjoy writing them. I apologize for the post I wrote yesterday about the tickometer. It was cute, but contrived. It was true, but unnecessary. Those of you who got it via email, I apologize. I deleted it.

Sometimes I hit the mark. It's a good feeling. I sometimes feel that I express my thoughts on the topic particularly well and it does feel good. I'm happy to publish it. Then, sometimes, I miss the mark badly. I don't want to, but if I'm not paying attention, it can slip through. You deserve the best that I can do and that is certainly my aim. It's just that sometimes I get caught up in putting a number on the board and keeping up with my goals. I get focused on the wrong thing. My ultimate aim is to share knowledge and instruct, and I really want to inspire. I would love to inspire you to change or take action or just think about something. I also inspire myself by writing this because it causes me to think. Have you ever heard that phrase that the way to really learn a thing is to teach it? It is true. I'm happy to have been teaching it for a long time now, yet there is so much more to learn!

If I miss the mark badly again, just drop me an email and let me know, or leave a comment here. I'll take note and pay attention. At the same time, if I hit the mark really well, it would be nice to hear that too. Some of you do that and I very much appreciate it. Feedback is good. It will keep me on my toes and focused where I really want to be--doing my best.

Thank you for reading and allowing me to share. The experience is grand. I'll give you the best I've got to give.
