I wrote a blog that got like a million hits. Made more than 50 hit iPhone apps (in the charts). Travelled to asia and africa. Started a masters degree and finished the first semester with the second best scores in the class (not done yet with the degree). Paid off my sisters debts. Became more courageous.
On the other hand, lost a lot of friends. Faced many of my limitations and discovered how lacking I was in many areas.
This year, I hope to focus on creating beautiful software. I'd also like to improve my general condition and health. And of course, I'll finish that degree.
- Clarity1992 16y agoBy "lost a lot of friends" do you mean you fell out, they died, you just lost touch with them? If falling out, how? I'm interested because one of my friends fell out with me this year sufficiently that he said "I don't want us to be friends any more". I was shocked and didn't know why. From what he told me it was the result of me making a few comments about his life in a flippant manner that I thought he was amused by, but actually he took it very very badly over the following few days and decided to not be friends any more. It's the only time I'd say I'd "lost" a friend. If I worked in startups and business I think the chances of losing friends would explode though. It seems there's huge potential for making rational, business-motivated decisions that others perceive as immoral or backstabbing etc. Is that what happened to you?
- matwood 16y agoI would wonder then if you were ever really friends. The people I call friends would tell me if I'm doing something that bothers them and then let me correct it (and vice versa).
