This is a great time of year. Christmas is 5 weeks from today, Thanksgiving is in 2 days, and the New Year starts in 6 weeks. My family is coming tomorrow to spend Thanksgiving here with us. We’ll have 14 people packed into our house, and it will be great! (cross my fingers)

So in the spirit of things, what 3 things are you most thankful for?

I’ll go first.

Family



I have the best family in the world! My wife Amy is so cool she has to live in the freezer or she’ll melt. Kaitlin and Alex are 2 amazing kids, I learn something from them everyday. Something that has surprised me is that a lot of what I learn from them is directly related to entrepreneurship and business. Their support is the key to me doing what I do, and doing what I do makes me very happy. And my extended family is great too. My Dad and Mom really helped turn me into what I am today–guess that might be a negative as much as a positive. I am truly lucky to have such an amazing family.

1. Friends



I have some of the best friends in the world. Friends that will come out adventuring with me. Friends that give me advice. Friends that are just plain awesome. Friends that I don’t tell near enough how thankful I am to be blessed with their friendship and relationship.

2. Entrepreneurship



I love entrepreneurship. It’s who I am to my core. Entrepreneurship can change the world. Not only do entrepreneurs solve problems and make the world a better place, but the very act of entrepreneurship changes those that participate in it and makes them better people. I really feel grateful that I am now in a position to start helping other people chase their entrepreneurship dreams–whether they’re kids selling Sno-cones at Doba, college or high school students, or first-time entrepreneurs.

These might be the ‘book answers’ for this question, but they really are what I am most thankful for. What 3 things are you most thankful for? Comment away. I’m shooting for a new record on comments: 20 from this post. So share thankfulness freely!
