My life, in general, is dealing with everyone else’s problems ~ if it’s not an issue with some tech somewhere, it’s an issue with a website or a purchase etc.

Now I’d like to think that I am a positive type person ~ I am predominately a ‘Glass is half full’ type, with minor negative expectations.

Call me am optimistic pessimist if you will: I believe that it will be fabulous, but experience tells me otherwise

Having said this, something I, and other small business owners, suffer from, from time to time, is a feeling of despondency - that feeling of “Why the **** am I doing this??!”

Well, today was one of those days…

I had some driving to do today: a special pick up from the suppliers then a brief sojourn down to a client near the Drax power station, after which I zoomed across to sunny Scarborough (amusingly renamed ‘Scarbados’ by the clients).

Usually I love these times, as it give time to think – get in car – apply liberal amounts of music and goooooooo!
On this occasion though, the doomsayers got there first, and the “what’s the point” message was coming through ‘loud and clear’.

BUT…

I had a client call (out of the blue) to say that he’d been to a networking session, where someone said they would review the other participants websites. One of these I had designed.
The review came back as extremely positive, and that the clients website was ‘One of the more pleasing designs’

That cheered me up no end!

I went on to have a great day – making several peoples lives easier and happier (I was delivering a new PC ~ it was like Christmas all over again!)
