My Next Big Move-->

This past year has been one of my best years and one of my worst years. It was filled with wealth, pain, loss, beauty, awakening, renewal, discovery and several minor strokes of genius. My company at a turning point because I’m looking for a new partner and re-organizing the company under a new structure. I’m also considering other options such as working for someone for a year or so. There is still a lot of baggage from my old company but I’m working to clean things up and lighten the load. I want a much more agile and responsible company out of the dust of this re-organization. I’m building something that reflects the point I am at in my life. Even if I do decide to take a break to work for someone I would still build this new company as I can’t help but be an entrepreneur. I can be extremely useful as an employee when properly motivated and when I have a stake in the success of a company. But working for a company that I don’t have stake in was something I said I would never do again. So, I’m having to reconcile that definitive statement I made several years ago with who I am today and where I want to be. Will I do something that I normally wouldn’t do because the circumstances of my life have changed? Well, if I can keep some of my freedom and retain my individualism then maybe I could work for someone for a brief period of time. Of course, I’m making moves in a lot of different directions to protect my interests and make sure I have plenty of opportunity.

As always, my next big move in my career and life will be based on what will make me grow the most as a person and help me fulfill my obligations as a father and a man. This defines most of my choices. I always work to move with life and hold my expectations to a minimum but keep my goals high. I did set my goals for the coming year and wrote them down so I have some targets for my life. So, whatever is going to bring me closer to my goals I will do. Through the achievement of my goals I will grow and fullfill my obligations. 

I am blessed and grateful to be where I am at in my life and I’ve worked extremely hard to get this far mostly unscathed. I hope that with my next big moves in my personal life and my professional life I can manage to build on who I’ve become and come to the end of next year in much better position than I already am.
