Missed a Day

Yep, I could've stopped in here for a moment yesterday, but I didn't. I got two hours of sleep yesterday. There's a drawback to becoming way busy way fast: You have to figure stuff out at lightening speed. The stuff you need to figure out are things like: How am I going to get enough sleep and give my clients the level of service I expect of myself to provide? If I farm out work, that takes time and management as well, so it seems hard to do it and yet I think this is the very thing that will help me get ahead. So will the joke be that I get really busy with my business and I make no money because I'm so busy handing work out to people? Will it be that for as busy as I am right now I'll be that without work in a few months? Or is this the beginning of a steady stream of clients? Hmm...

Here's what I know. I know one of my recent goals was to get enough sleep each day and then to exercise each day and train the dogs. I've been able to train the dogs. Sleep is missing often and exercise is very intermittent. I need to manage my time differently than I have in the past, which I suspect will mean more handing out work and trusting in the good folks that I've chosen to do the work. Trusting in others can be so scary. You know, when you choose to trust someone to do work for you it can be a reflection on you as well, like if you think that person is so great and then you give them work and they totally bomb, what does that say about your judgment skills? See, there's no denying when someone else doesn't live up to your needs/expectations so then you have to live with the fact that you made the decision to trust them in the first place. Ugh. It's so much easier to hide in the shadows and just try to do all the work oneself, but that won't get me very far, will it?
