Happy 1st year anniversary!
Just 1 year ago, Life Coaches Blog launched with our very first post. Since then, we’re 266 posts and 826 comments richer.
A lot has changed since then, as I’m sure a lot has changed in your life as well. From 5 writing life coaches to 1, with 3 changes to the way we look, from being nowhere to becoming number 12 in Google’s search results for ‘life coaches’.
But best of all, new friends made all over the world, which without this blog wouldn’t have been possible.
It hasn’t always been easy, but it has been rewarding, and I’d like to thank you for being there with me.
Many of you have left very encouraging comments that kept me writing through the tough times; times when I couldn’t think of a single sentence, when I was dog-tired from work, when my self-doubts crept in screaming ‘what do you think you’re doing?‘, when everything else made posting that much more of a challenge, your positivity helped keep me going.
But why do I keep going?
It was a question I had to face many times, and everytime the answer that’s come up has been very simple: I want to make a difference in people’s lives, and Life Coaches Blog is the platform where I get to do that.
What greater reason do you need? 
Here’s to another great year, full of fun, passion and joy, and may all our wisdoms nourish the seeds of growth we’ve planted this past year.

Hi Alvin!! happy 1st Anniversary =D I’ve been reading this blog since I graduated from Whoosh 18. Love your articles (esp. the one on “How to suck and still be on top”) and links to other great blogs (Don’t blame the lettuce). Been sending your articles to my colleagues as well, which are so much more meaningful then sending powerpoints about the meaning of life.. blahblahblah.. Keep on going!!

Thanks Scott and Gleb! I’m impressed by your writings too and honored to have you as my readers.

Yezhong, it’s pretty remarkable how things have changed in a year hasn’t it? It didn’t seem that long ago that LCB was a spark in my head and we talked about it over coffee.
