Do what you fear and the death of that fear is certain.

Finding a project manager was a blessing. This opportunity produced a new website, some sales sheets, and some logo samples.
Dear Son you will find that opportunity sometimes creates challenges, as surely as challenges often create opportunity.
This is my first experience were opportunity has created a scenario that is stretching me in unexpectedly uncomfortable ways.
The upside? It helped me see how high my expectations are and how patient i need to be while discerning these:
Pay by the hour
Pay a salary
Hire a replacement
It frightens me that i may be the issue.
It gives me solace that i am a good and decent person, leaning always to the more-than-fair side of things.
Meanwhile, i am graciously transitioning from paying a monthly salary in advance of any work being done to paying two-weeks in advance of any work being done and then moving to a traditional practice of receiving a work-completed invoice – for review before paying.
Seems more than fair.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
New Passport arrived yesterday, in half the time they promised.
Making decisions about things i never saw coming is interesting because i wrestle with accepting my ignorance, and rejoice with my discoveries (and growth).
It’s quite possible this year will see me pay out wages equal to or greater than my entire income last year.
Never saw it coming.
And now?
Now i can’t imagine making a difference without it.
PS. Just sent an email to someone i’m working with stating that it’s absurd to hire an amazing person and then tell them what to do. She is grateful.
