I don’t know about you, but that was one heck of a quick month. On Friday, my transition process is complete and it’s time for me to get focused on the tasks of building the next chapter (or volume) of my life. Some things have gone extremely well. I find myself happier and more focused than I have been in a very a long time. Best of all,I have some real targets established for the future. Unfortunately, it hasn’t been all bright and rosy. I would be lying if I said finances weren’t a concern. A couple of things I had been hoping on didn’t materialize and that just added more stress to the whole situation. Hopefully, everything will be resolved soon and I can try to relax at least a little bit. It’s been a long time since I have not had the comfort of a well paying job to fall back on. Now, I’m working without a net and I’m a litte nervous.
Who knows, maybe that is a positive thing. It was easy to get compacent where I was. I let myself get distracted rather than push forward. Now, I have no excuse except my own cowardice and I know I can beat that. It helps that I have a wife who has been extremely supportive (Happy Birthday Love!) and a family that has rallied to my side. I am thankful for all of that support.
I go in to turn in the last of my corporate persona on Friday. After that, there is only the future. I already have an interview scheduled for tomorrow with a University project that is right up my alley. Hopefully, I can find a place there. If not, I have faith. Some things happen for a reason and I know this did. Life is about action and reaction. It is about facing the obstacles and makin opportunity. I have done that all of my life. I don’t intend to stop now!
