I am fully aware that I could not have made it this far without the support of my friends,  family and readers like you.  Thank you so

much for your love in 2012.

       I started this blog in April 2012 and did not publish the first post until May.   “Dear Citibank or Lessons in Customer Service” was originally a sample for a freelance writing client, who rejected it.  Since then it’s been made into a feature article on a much larger midlife blog.

 To date, over 6,000 people have visited Writings of A Mid Life Man, which is not bad considering that in 2009 I did not know what a blog was!

With  a few exceptions,  the posts deal with self-improvement and becoming a better man.  While I’m still working on ‘finding my voice’ and improving my writing  in 2013, regular readers can expect even more articles on improving health, relationships and financial status. There’ll be articles on: How I paid off my mortgage early; how I make money on the internet; and, tips on living a good life.

    It is my hope that in 2013, my readers will take the  actions that lead to LIVING THE LIFE THEY DESIRE.   Small, habitual action beats grand planning every time.

  Two Things:  It is not that our life is so short, it is that we waste so much of it.

                              You can make a change or you can make an excuse

                               but you can’t be successful at both.
