I did it again. I failed – hard.

I abandoned my blog before even really starting.

In the meantime, my wife and I have filed for divorce — which will be official 18 days from now, after only 2+ years of marriage.

The company my [soon-to-be-ex] wife and I started together over a year ago grew incredibly fast out of the gates, but is now quickly going down in flames and needs some serious attention.

These are all failures — and anyone would agree.

I set out to do things — to write, to create a lasting and fulfilling union, and to spread a much needed service throughout the land — but completely missed the mark on all accounts.

I failed at those things.

This is all current news too… things I’m experiencing here and now, as I write these words. With this being the case, you’d think I would be down, negative, perhaps even depressed.

So why then am I not? Why do I feel like I’m on top of the world? How did I parlay these monumental upsets into one of the greatest and most optimistic times in my life?
