The Good Life. |
I'm having a great day. My kids are all being overachievers, blowing me away with how much they practiced all week. And two of them gave me Starbucks gift cards for Christmas! ![]() The week after Christmas, I'm on vacation all week. That's when I figure out The Plan. To what day(s) do I move my students? Can they move? How do I free up my weekend time for family? How many days a week should I take off at Abbott, and which days, to get it all lined up for the permanent switch? With all this to figure out, how am I supposed to start a business??? Resign from Abbott by 3/1/10. In progress and on schedule. Look into real estate for music instruction. I may assign this one to Keith. He's into that sort of stuff, and he wants to help. At a minimum, I'd like us to drive around target neighborhoods the week after Christmas, while we're both on vacation. Brand the biz. I am meeting with my friend Emily Monday at a coffee shop to scope out the biz and talk about ideas. And Keith and I talked extensively last night. Basically, I need to stop dreaming so big and get a bit more revenue-centric. (He's so smart.) So we're both on vacation the week after Christmas, and we're going to spend time together working on a plan. The conversation already has my brain reeling, of course, and I've been writing ideas in my little notebook all morning. And Keith pointed out that I may be rushing the biz idea. I do have a lot on my plate and want to be successful, so we should take it one step at a time. ![]() Business: Music Instruction Books. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Current real estate goal: Organize garage.
