Great stuff Dave. Really glad to see that things are going well for the new venture and very much approve of the structure you've adopted, plus your writing is consistently enjoyable! Can't comment on the running....

I can totally relate to what you’re saying David. Starting your own business is a truly rewarding, if not a tad terrifying, adventure. I loved it too.

As for running, nothing better than that post exercise high…I reckon it’s onwards and upwards for you!

Well done on surviving the year David, and thanks for another great blog - I well remember how scary that step away from job security was.

Love this! Leaving the comfort of secure employment is no small feat and you deserve every success mate. Onwards 🚀

Missed one week annoyingly, thought it was irresponsible to try and write something cogent in the middle of a stag do.

It can be difficult for sure, I take the view that I just want as many reps as possible. There is definitely appeal to storing up a longer form, excellent piece like yours yesterday.

I'm always scared of publishing longer form articles (as I typically like to aim for 'concise'); however, my two longest articles are my best performing by quite a margin haha... I obviously need to let go of that irrational fear - the numbers don't lie!

Thanks mate, appreciate that.

On a separate note, your consistency is impressive - showing up weekly is tough!

I've been writing/creating content on & off for 4 years now and too often I've let life/procrastination/perfectionism derail me for months at a time... case in point, I still need to finish an article for this week haha
