Snowed In Again!

What advice should you have listened to?

I was surprised, though I shouldn’t have been really, at the amount of advice that people were willing to give to us as new parents. We didn’t even have to ask – the advice was flung at us from left, right and centre. Sometimes the advice would be given to us more than once if we foolishly failed to follow it the first time.

I’ve never been good at receiving advice, especially when it has a chance of touching any part of my ego – in this case my parental skills, which I am only just developing of course. So nearly all of the advice went into the garbage can in my mind. Which is a pity because 6 months down the line we see that we should have followed some of the advice.

What advice should you have listened to?

What I do

I’ve never been a great fan of the old question “What do you do?” I’ve never been a great believer in defining myself by what I happen to be doing from 9 till 5 at the time.

And one of the problems is that I do a lot of things. Probably too much but that is how I’ve always been. Always having ideas and starting on them – whether I ended up finishing them is a completely different matter and worthy of a much longer discussion.

But it’s probably worth taking a look at what I am doing now, partly to shock myself and partly so that you can check out other stuff I am doing,

Creation of a new site for 1 client

I am also working on two new projects, one with one of my brothers which is due to launch in early 2010, and the other is with a friend and has a launch date of March next year.

I wonder sometimes why I feel knackered and my to-do list only ever seems to grow….

Oh yeah, and I am a new father…
