The year 2010 will go down in my life's history as one of change, definition and epiphanies. I have learned more in this one year than any other that I can recall.

Things that happened to me in 2010

I resigned from Vodacom SA.I almost destroyed the best thing in my life. Fortunately I learn fast and she took me back.Vincent Maher and I received Venture Capital from 4Di Capital and started our own company, Motribe.I moved to Cape Town.I'm doing long distance, again, with the same woman.I was nominated as a Game Changer in the 2010 Men's Health Man of the year awards (I didn't win but a deserved Jon Cherry did!)Here's a little quote from my end of year blog post from last year:

"Next year is going to be about consolidation, establishing a platform and working off of that platform in my personal life and in my career. The killer concept next year is going to be mobile. There is no doubt about that in my mind. We are going to see some amazing mobile developments emerging out of Africa (I say Africa because the developed world still believes that mobile = iPhone)."

This year has definitely NOT been about consolidation at all. It's been manic, hectic, insane and another cracking year for me. I was right about one thing though; this year has been about mobile and we did build a platform that we now work off of.Continuing from last years list, here's a my list of things for 2010:

I'm pretty bad at being a "futurist" so I'll stick to what I do know:Mobile is the next big thing that is happening right now.Music can cure any headache if you choose the right song.Life will happen.And finally some advice that I think we all can learn from 2010:Write a diary (your chronicles) because you never who might want to make a movie about you someday.
