A New Beginning

Well, yesterday was my birthday. I'm now 51 years old and I have just four short years to make my fortune. (That's because Harland "Colonel" Sanders was 55 when he made his fortune after many years of effort.)

So to celebrate my birthday... two things occured. I Incorporated as a Delaware LLC and opened my bank account and 2) [drum roll please] I finally made more than $2.00 in one day on Google AdSense. (Woo hoo!)

This has got the ring of inevitability to it. :)

Welcome to Richard's Secret

OK... naturally your first question is... what IS Richard's so called secret?

Well, for any of you that have seen the movie, "The Secret"... this is my personal focal point... where I write my aspirations, reinforcements, reminders, and progress towards my goals. No, nothing dark and scintillating... just my own public diary as to what I want in life... and how I'm going about getting it.

So... of course your second question is... why are you doing this in public?

Because I'm getting over my apparent shyness and embarrassment about declaring WHAT I WANT IN MY LIFE. If I was to say "I want a million dollars"... a certain part of me would be embarrassed. Don't know why. Maybe I'll figure that out in this blog. The point is... if I'm willing to declare it in public, that will help me get over any embarrassment... and that will better help me achieve the goal. Make sense?

So.. stay tuned to "Richard's Secret" and see where we all go!
