just a simple journal entry. about a month ago, the plan was set. there were three objectives: 1. pass the boards 2. establish a relationship 3. start the website successfully. the deadline, before i leave 30.
so far, that's two strikes for me. still manageable, all things considered. failing the boards, although quite a heavy loss, is still recoverable next year. anyway, the profession is the backup plan, and has been working as intended. you should never really perfect the backup to the point of losing sight of the main objective.
the relationship could not exist at the moment. maybe i just haven't found the right one yet. not that i did not try, but i can only go as far as meeting her halfway, or probably i could go 99%. it won't mean a thing if she does not respond. having done my part, it just did not work out. it's a learning experience. calculated failure as well.
now i can fully focus on what i truly think i am designed for. the business. the website is the key for the succeeding years. gradually, the parts are put into place. so far so good. before the year ends a more accurate prognosis could be given. the gears are already turning, we just don't know how far it would go.
everything's going according to plan. some outcomes or maybe all might not be favorable, but the options have already been considered. we know our strengths and weaknesses so far. the backup is still working. the last thing we need is a monkey wrench.
