Joyce Park said that. It's as true for startups as it is for life:

• Begin.

• Learn.

• Network.

• Be productive.

• Be proactive.

• Be fearless.

• Be awesome.

On that note, I wanted to take a moment and thank all of you for making our 2011 special.

We've learned so much in the first six months that 106miles.net has been operational, and we have big plans for PandaWhale in 2012.

To all of our 106ers, we wish you a happy and healthy new year!

Thanks so much, Panda. You changed both my life and the life of my startup. I don't have enough words to thank you for the blessing you've been; not just to me, but to everyone. My 2011 goal was progress, not perfection. My 2012 goal: Peace in the Chaos.

Engage!

And make it so.

I second David's comment - Thanks very much, Adam! It's been awesome working on NNY/RWC111111. The event was honestly the best and most worthwhile thing I have worked on in several years. We all learned so much. Here's to an awesome 2012 - the Year of the PandaDragon! Cheers.
