I know that I’m taking steps toward achieving my goal. I know because just yesterday we had someone round to discuss the possibility of giving us a home loan, and owning a home is one of my main goals. So if I’m taking these steps I must be moving forward. Right? But it all just […]
Day 40, 41, 42 & 43: Catch Up
Thursday morning I worked on my action plan for an hour and a half in the morning. It was great. I accomplished more than I expected and I felt like I was actually moving forward. But the whole idea is to get some momentum going and sadly that was the last I worked on it […]
Day 39: Gratitude
It occurred to me after I wrote my last post that maybe I’m ignoring the million and one things that I have to be grateful for. Well, OK, no maybe about it. I’ve been moping around the last couple of days because everything just feels so overwhelming. I should note that I’m a person prone […]
Day 38: Blah, Blah, Woof, Woof
“Blah, blah, woof, woof” is a quote from one of my favourite episodes of Dark Angel. Basically it means “whatever dude”. That’s pretty much where I’m at. Yes I did some work – for an hour or so. All I accomplished was to move forward a tiny little bit, which, got to say, feels pretty […]
Day 37: Seperating Work From Home
My goal here is to create a business that I can work from home or in fact anywhere in the world. Something that I alone am in charge of. I can take my own risks and reap my own rewards. I can say “I did that; I created that wonderful thing”. But, like the hundreds […]
Day 36: Addicted and Overwhelmed
Another day spent house hunting. Well most of it … after lunch we were so disappointed that we came home, lay down on the bed and slept most of the afternoon away. I did try to work in the evening but ended up looking at houses again. It’s like a giant treasure hunt and whilst […]
Day 35: Back To The House Hunting
We spent the entire day looking at houses. The entire day – from 5am in the morning when we were scouring the paper for open homes to 4pm at night when we finished our last inspection. And even then I came home and looked at more homes on the Internet. From all that we ended […]
Day 34: TGIF
Thank god it’s Friday! I’ve achieved very little toward my business this week and I’m sad about that but working full-time and trying to keep up with everything is just huge. Still, it’s Friday. And I’ve successfully completed my first week at a new job. All it all it was pretty good. And … no […]
Day 33: After The Christmas Party
Who’s idea was it to have a Christmas party in the middle of the week, when you’ve got to go back to work the next day. I did manage, whilst nursing my hangover, to start on posts but everything is so disorganised with my site and what I want to do with my business that […]
Day 32: The Christmas Party
Yesterday my co-worker said to me “…. umm, do you know about the Christmas party?” “Ummm…. no” I replied. “Surprise, it’s tomorrow. Oh, by the way, dress-up.” I’m not much for parties. Not at all really. Well sometimes. This time as it turns out. I drank heaps, ate heaps and generallly had a good time. […]
