If my life has taught me anything up to this point - it’s that you need to do things you don’t feel qualified for.

I didn’t feel qualified to be a Data Analyst.

I didn’t feel qualified to be a Manager.

I wasn’t qualified to teach people on YouTube.

I wasn’t qualified or have enough experience to start consulting.

Genuinely, I wasn’t qualified for any of it - I just did it and did my best. It’s taken me places and opened doors I never even knew about.

At some point I just started putting :) in my emails and I haven't quit.

Is this unprofessional?

Because I can tell you right now I've easily written 1000s of emails with smileys in them and I have no plan on stopping.

I don't know when or how this started, but it's become a running theme for my kids to make me look as insane and crazy in drawings as they can.

Everyone else can look perfectly normal - or even drawn great - but not me.

I hold onto as many of these drawings as I can. They make me smile every time I see one :D

Every year we take family photos at the end of the year.

When the kids were little, my wife and I couldn't take photos of just her and I because we were running around trying to wrangle them all together to get some good photos.

This year the kids were old enough that we got to take some photos of just her and I!

What a big milestone! Now I get to have fun with her and take goofy photos and this was one of my favorites!

Get married to the love of your life and it'll be the best life you've ever had.

I planned on getting a lot of work done today.

Then this dog decided to eat 3 homemade brownies that were meant for my kids Thanksgiving party at school.

Now I’m off to save this small dogs life.

Never let the universe know what you're doing today - it’ll find a way to ruin it
