La Bene Vita

Tuesday

Tuesdays are kind of nice. I don't have to work until later in the evening, like 4pm-ish. Fridays, I have the day off, and that's even better.

I might take on a new (additional) role at church. I didn't plan on it and was going to hire someone, but when a peer suggested I just do it myself, the pastors basically said that if I'm interested, they won't even bother to interview anyone else. It's a little outside of my comfort zone, but I think it's supposed to challenge me to grow. I'm not sure yet, but it shouldn't be that big of a time commitment.

200-ish. It was like 203.5 when I left last night, but it hit 207.5 at some point, before I processed a couple withdrawals.

I've been thinking of expanding early. Our current target is fall of 2013, and I'm considering pushing it up to fall of 2012. Most of my advisors think it's a bad idea because the two biggest reasons small business fail is (1) they don't properly manage cash flow and run out of money, and (2) they try to grow too fast. However, I think we're going to run out of space before fall 2013. So I'm on the fence.

Writing:
(1) Blog at MT.com   by the end of Wednesday: Yes.

(2) 30 minutes of daily freestyle writing: I wrote a Textbroker article today. There are a ton of Level 5 Open Orders, and if this one is accepted with minor or no revision, I may write a slew of them. Or at least a couple.
