Although it sounds extremely crazy, I am often labeled "lucky," by friends and family who have traditional corporate jobs. The fact I set my own hours and control my own destiny is a liberating concept for those who find themselves locked in careers they ultimately hate. And while I am very quick to say I'm extremely fortunate for that opportunity, it's not as easy as one would think. In the end, success is all relative to what you sacrifice to
achieve it. As many can attest, any surplus in one area usually comes with a shortage in another. With any new year, it's natural to reflect on the previous and assess what worked and what didn't. In many ways, 2006 was one of the hardest in my life. It was filled with challenges and setbacks not uncommon to a situation like mine. 2006 though, was also one I learned the most from and for that I am very thankful.
The highlights of 2006 are not
necessarily the 'what'
Eyenovation did, it's the 'who' we did it with. Throughout the year, we had the
privilege of working with many great individuals whom I now consider friends. From lower Manhattan to
Las Vegas, San Francisco to San Diego -
Eyenovation was called upon to deliver work in numerous locations. This allowed me great opportunities to travel outside our offices and interact with our clients in new settings. The memories made along the way are what make this job truly enjoyable.
So what's in store for 2007? A lot. Much of which I am unable to reveal at the moment. I can say however, be on the lookout for an all new
Eyenovation web site. As for when that will be done? We're not quite sure with all of the client work. But... it will include a
tremendous amount of the stuff we've been working on the last few months. It's safe to say it's somewhat chaotic in the
Eyenovation world, but the calmest place of any hurricane is right in the eye; and that's where I find myself at the moment. Happy New Year.
