1. Today marks the one year anniversary of my plunge into self-employment! Things that have drastically changed in my life:  Public holidays have become an alien concept. Weekends too! Despite not having to, I probably wake up early more consistently than I used to when I worked full-time. I think it’s more to do with doing it cos I can, not cos I have to.  I spend far less time stuck in traffic jams. Consequently, the bar in the chart that details the growth of bedroom clutter has skyrocketed.  I finally managed to whittle down 50% of my comics “to read” list.  I’ve traded all my tech-y, work-related podcasts for ones that either cover football, gaming or football.  Due to the fact that I used to catch up on TV shows while stuck in traffic jam, I’ve probably watched less TV than back when I was well, stuck in more traffic jams.  Improvements to professional skillset offerings: drafting legal documents, 15% increase in capacity for small-talk, 25% increase in capacity for taking bullshit. By the same point next year, I’m aiming to have graduated to running a business that warrants hiring an army of zombie interns who do my bidding (mainly, trips to Tesco for donut runs).
