			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What was the spark ?  You know, that moment when it hit you ?  The moment you said, &#8220;I am going to make this idea into reality&#8221;. Maybe it wasnt a split second &#8220;ah ha&#8221; moment for you, but I am sure you can recall it.</p>
<p>Mine came as I stood in the local Bonefish Grill waiting for a carry out order.  I am always thinking tech stuff, maybe a little too much <img src='http://eastcoastblogging.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .  In any case, my idea initially wasn&#8217;t meant to be a product that I necessarily I thought other people would use.  Rather I thought, &#8220;I need this, I would love this&#8221;, and that is how I set out on this journey I have found myself on over this last year or so.  So I started scratching ideas on a pocket Moleskin as I traveled around the world.  Scribbled designs and thoughts as they came to me.  Eventually working it into a design and requirements.</p>
<p>Nothing epic, but its a moment that I will always remember.<br />
How about you, what is your moment ?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am not even sure if I classify as an entrepreneur or not .. not sure what I am, but that is what this new feature is going to be called.</p>
<p>I do not consider myself the typical &#8220;entrepeneur&#8221; if you will.  I have a full time gig.  But I do a lot more.  I write this blog, started a consulting business, and am in developement of a product (www.mydropbin.com).  On top of all that, I have 2 small children, a house, yard to cut, and so on.  I try very hard to balance all of these aspects of my life, but I must admit, it is next to impossible.</p>
<p>And that is what this section is going to be all about.  I want to paint the picture of how it all started.  My passion to write about the local community here in DC.  My struggles in the balancing act, etc.</p>
<p>But I also want to hear your stories too.  I know we all have them.  I dont want to be the only contributer to this section, I want you to post as well and share your own special chronicles.</p>
<p>Send them in and we will get the ball rolling.</p>
<p>Enjoy the journey everyone.</p>
