Its now 2008…
Eight years into the new millenium and all the new year resolutions are set. The fun this year will be trying to accomplish them all. Its always been said that the most productive people have diaries and little lists of “things to do”. These little lists are like mini contracts with yourself that states what must be done before the end of the day/week/month/year. The buzz of fulfillment when all the items have been checked of is quite powerful.
This year I have decided to write my new years resolutions on a piece of paper and carry them with me everywhere in my wallet. I want to ensure that I am constantly reminded of what should be achieved this year.
Its very easy to just shrug your shoulders and say “ah well” when you look back on a year and wander where all the time went. I dont want 2008 to be like that. I am hoping that the resolutions in my wallet will be a poke in the right direction and a focus that will enable me to take major steps forward in the progression of McNicholl Holdings.
To think one year ago I was Buying the Domain. It seems so primitive now. Since then I have been programming frantically, in the evenings after work – trying to build a business and a future.
I find the festive time a very good chance to reflect and review on what the year has delivered and to prepare for what is to come.
I think now is a good time to reflect on my best blog posts of 2007 (listed in no particular order):
- Programmatical Database Optimisation
- sfGuard and Implementing Security in Symfony…
- RSS: How to integrate feeds into your website with AJAX…
- Learning AJAX with the Prototype Framework…
Heres hoping 2008 will be the start of something great.
May all of you have a happy and prosperous new year!
