Turning 25…

I guess after 21 this is the next big birthday…Well I turn 25 today! Thinking back on the last 25 years of my life is crazy, just thinking that I’ve been alive for 25 years is crazy in itself. When you are young you always imagine what you will be doing when you are 25 and honestly I couldn’t even imagine that I would be running my own company. I always knew I wanted to do something with computers, but I never thought ThinkComputers would actually be my full time job. I thought I would be working in some boring office, having a crappy boss, and everyday being the same. But since going full time with ThinkComputers every day brings something different and there is always something exciting going on. Besides computers I really never thought about doing anything else with my life, and I’m really glad how things have turned out. It’s crazy to think back and if you didn’t make certain decisions you life could be totally different…

I think I’ve really done a lot of growing up the past few years. I realized that it really takes hard work to make it in this world and that’s why I work so hard at ThinkComputers. I know if I’m able to make a living off of it I can make it better and better, it just takes hard work. Nothing really comes easy, you have to really be dedicated and work at it. I’ve also come to appreciate things a lot more, especially my good friends. Really good friends are hard to come by and as you get older you really realize who your true friends are. There are only a few people that I can really call my good friends and I really appreciate their friendship.

As I said I’m very happy with my life right now I’ve been able to experience a lot that I couldn’t even imagine doing when I was growing up. Going to CES every year is such a treat and it is probably the best time I have all year. Probably because it is a mix of work and partying all at the same time. Just being able to travel to different cities and I haven’t been to before is something I never thought about before and I’m glad I’m able to do it. Being able to travel and go to events I have been able to meet some really great people that not only have helped my business, but have become really good friends. I was also in a very serious 3 year relationship that ended about a year ago. I really think that it was a good thing for me because it really taught me not only about myself but about everything. It is something that I think everyone should go through at least once in their life.

Sorry if this post was a little off the wall, just thoughts that were going through my head at the time that I had to write down. I hope the next 5 years of my life are as great as the past 5 have been…
