Every day in December, I decided to step outside my comfort zone and try something different. I took 31 opportunities to stretch into the unfamiliar in both big and small ways and write about it on SM. It seemed simple and fun.

I call it a point of impact. It’s a moment that creates an impression, often a negative one, that shapes your beliefs, the way you feel about yourself, and the ways you function in the world.

One year… it’s hard to take in really. I remember the moment life came to standstill. It imprinted my spirit.

A few weeks ago, I made a mistake. A public, professional mistake the caused a wave of embarrassment for me. Chance are, you were witness to this mistake.

This was supposed to be a very different email coming your way. Today was supposed to be the launch of a really big project I’ve been working on for quite some time.
