The other thing...

I read Dave's post on Mind Petals about marrying your passion and I'd be remissed if I didn't emphatically state that the reason WHY I fight so hard to see SportsLizard succeed and don't just continue down the path of becoming a successful SEO: it's what I love, it's what I'm passionate about, and it's what gets me motivated to work so hard every day.

SEO work and other projects within Pure Adapt don't do that for me, and therefore in a round-a-bout way are no better to me than working as an engineer - they both fail to meet that innate need that I have to do what I'm passionate about. My passions evolve and change, but as long as I'm always chasing them with a fire under my ass I'll be happy. Right or wrong, that's how I'm wired and that's me.

And yes, I'm still awake and it's 3PM :)
