a cool day

Today our sales for 2007 reached the same level as for all of 2006. It's hard to believe that it's only been two and a half years since I started working on HelpSpot and this blog. The two are really one in the same in many ways. My first post was dedicated to Adam Curry, kind of funny, but his post that day did really inspire me.

It's kind of odd to read that first post, knowing now to some degree how everything turned out. I'm amazed that I still have the same drive I did back then. It seems with all the hours I've worked and code I've written and everything I've been through that I shouldn't be this motivated, but I am. More than ever I believe that you need to love what you're doing to be truly successful at it. I'm happy to still have that love.
