I started my 31 Days to a Better Blog. My next step is a lot of reading. I will continue with my progress updates, so you can click on the link directly above this entry. I still have a few bugs to work out with my theme, and I’ve already figured out and worked through some bugs.

I have to thank Chris Pirillo for the theme. Check out his Live Feed sometime.

Now for some light reading before bedtime.

That .. felt .. GREAT! Then it all made sense to me. I was going to follow my dream and start my own business making money doing what I love best; blogging and customizing wordpress themes.

Ken was a huge help in getting the business paperwork going. Any day now I’ll have my official Tax ID # attached to my business name “Jenny Berry Innovations LLC”

My whole family has been cheering me on, telling me this is what I was meant to do. I have the fear of failure, just a little, but a lot less than when I went into work everyday and tried to play the politics game. As the weeks went by I started feeling better and better finding myself less sick than usual. As a modivator to get out of the house I signed up at the YMCA to do water aerobics.

Everything feels better now that I don’t have to answer to a boss anymore. I’m self disciplined enough to pull this off, and like I said previously, it’s something I love to do. I’ve been blogging since 1995 at my personal blog and used it to dive into understanding Wordpress. I don’t know it all but I was born to be creative and in my own time as a hobby I would make themes for other people. I never thought one could get paid doing something fun that they enjoy. I’m quickly finding out that this is what I was meant to do.

Here’s to success!
