The last Christmas of the decade and I have big plans for the next decade, and I’d love to share my thoughts, work/life balance & the whole journey with you.
so happy Christmas I just got back from
a walk with wolf and I don't want to set
up the camera and everything to do it it
is Christmas after all
I've just realized that this is the last
Christmas of the decade it's it's a
weird one for me it was it's a weird one
for me personally and there are two main
reasons two biggest reasons why I
haven't celebrated Christmas for the
past since 2007 before that was a big
Christmas guy used to get the massive
tree and get the lights out and buy
presents and actually several times I
even cooked Christmas dinner
but for since 2006 I haven't wanted to
do it and as I said there are two main
reasons for it and as the years went on
I realized there was no there's no
necessity for it there's no reason for
it I don't like to call myself a
minimalist I'm not I'm a simplest I like
to do things simply I like to find the
easiest way to do the most difficult
thing so I'm not a minimalist you just
don't like that word seems like a
religion almost a minimalist but I like
to do things simply and I like to find
the easiest way to do things it's a
weird place to the video sorry um so
anyway I think it was 2006 my last
Christmas before that I did the tree and
everything after a few years when I
stopped doing
Christmas and celebrate I don't
celebrate birthdays either and there's a
personal reason for that as I said but
I've realized that there's no reason for
it I don't I mean I like I'm a solitary
person I like my own time I have a bunch
of friends who always ask me to go out
or always ask me to go for Christmas
with them and I love them for it I
surely do but I'm not I just like my own
time I have my nest as it were I have my
wolf I have lots of things that I like
doing on my own besides that I don't
think you need to complicate your life
with a bunch of stuff and I'm going I
mean this year 2019 it kind of started
in 2018 I've realized I've got too much
stuff way too much stuff so I'm going
through getting rid of a lot of stuff
and I don't want to make this into a New
Year's resolution but I've come to the
realization I've still accumulated so
much stuff that I just don't need and
also write computers and software and
work I'm talking personal stuff
basically so 2020 it's a nice round
number 2020 vision and all that I'm
gonna make a lot of changes this is the
last Christmas of the decade and a few
days time it's gonna be the last day of
the decade and I think it's it's good to
start afresh
and I think my time has come to move
things along
and I've got a lot of things up my
sleeve that I'm gonna deal with and I'm
gonna do and I want you guys to be in on
the journey as well
so as I said past 10 years been dealing
with Christmas on my own and I love it
it's great don't want any anyone feeling
sorry for anything nothing going on
everything's fine and still smiling but
there are there are some sad reasons why
I don't do Christmas but that's again a
personal thing so anyway have a great
Christmas
whenever you watch this video and my
videos are gonna be different from now
on it's not gonna be always in the same
place I'm not always going to talk about
tech the reason why I started making
videos was to document my work but my
work is my life my life is my work so
why not talk about relatively personal
stuff anyway have a great Christmas
remember keep it simple obviously and
I'll see you tomorrow hopefully you wait
to watch the video after eating all the
food over Christmas and you have a great
day ciao bye bye
