I found the forums last week and have already noticed an increase in my motivation from commenting on your articles. A few of you have even taken the time to read mine and join the discussion. I really appreciate it, so I wanted to make sure to formally introduce myself here in the forums.
My name is Bob and I’m an accountant by trade currently building a side hustle at CubicleSherpa.com.
The site primarily covers career and personal finance advice for young professionals age 22-30.
I can’t commit to a 2x/week post schedule just yet, but I look forward to officially joining the Yakezie Challenge in the future.
Regards,
Bob

Thanks again for the warm welcome everyone.
I'm working on commenting on all of your blogs. If I could just stop getting sidetracked reading the great articles…
Regards,
Bob

Welcome Bob. Perhaps this is a dumb question, but what does "Sherpa" refer to in your name? I've seen a couple blogs use that word lately. Is it a new slang word that I'm out of the loop on, or are you actually from Nepal?

Hello and Welcome, Bob! There's definitely plenty of supportive and encouraging people around these forums, who have helped me to improve my blog and kept me going through a lot of tough times. Here's to you being able to increase your number of weekly posts in the near future!

Bob I encourage you to take the challenge now. I waited 4 months before joining Yakezie, just out with same fear that I might not be able to post 2x,3x a week. after I joined the challenge things became so easy.

The Sherpa are often depicted in pop culture as the people who guide climbers up Mt. Everest. I'm using the word in my name to be synonymous with 'guide'. Basically saying that I'll help guide them through their lives in the cubicle (post graduation/beginning of their career).
Domain names are becoming harder to come by, so I had to get a little creative with it.

Thanks for the advice – I'll seriously consider jumping in.
Did you find that the quality of your posts went down as you started posting more often? My main concern is that I want to write the best articles possible and I don't think I have the energy to do two every week.
