• Day 1: Why I Started an Accountability Blog (And Why I Might Quit)

    I figured the best way to hold myself accountable was to do it publicly. That’s probably my biggest struggle, staying accountable. Or maybe it’s not so much accountability as it is being wishy-washy. My ideas and ventures change as quickly as I change my underwear. Do I have a touch of ADHD? Possibly.

    My latest and greatest idea was to rush into creating this blog so I could share my ideas and current projects. I’m going to go ahead and guess I’m not the only one who has trouble staying focused. Don’t get me wrong; I do actually get things done. But it takes a lot out of me to see them through. I’ve had a pretty diverse career so far: military right out of high school; nursing school (yeah, I’m actually a registered nurse); helped convert a large health system from paper charting to an electronic medical record system; and most recently, became a senior business intelligence developer. All of that over 22 years.

    So what am I doing now? Well, I’m trying to figure that out. Hopefully this blog helps me find my way, or it could just be another fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants project that quickly loses its dazzle and ends with me abandoning ship.

    Either way, I’m hitting publish.
