A t the end of each year, I do a short end-of-the-year recap for readers and then share my favorite books that I read that year. You can see recaps and book reviews from 2019, 2018, and 2017.
Year in Review
Well, fuck… we didn’t see that coming, did we?
I’ll start by saying that I have been extremely fortunate this year. I feel as though I dodged pretty much every bullet 2020 shot at me. I already worked from home. I have no kids. Being online, my business benefited from the pandemic and grew a bit this year. Book sales continue to be strong. Wife and I got along great. Without the insane travel schedules of 2019 and 2018, I ate healthy, lost about 20 pounds, drank way less, and slept better than I have in years.
Honestly, on an individual level, 2020 was a great year for me. It was healthy, productive, and for the most part, relatively happy (there were a couple dark periods in the spring and fall, but those passed). I feel very fortunate and I’ve been constantly reminding myself of how good I have it.
This year was spent working on the Will Smith book (yes, it’s still happening) and expanding the content of the website and newsletter. I launched my YouTube channel and have a few other projects I am looking forward to pursuing in the new year.
