It
is 1 June today! Why the hell is time going so fast! I am getting older
each day; I want to freeze time or better still, reverse my ageing
process. I have just started my new career. It will be over soon!
I have been extremely busy over the past few weeks. Shop front is
still on the agenda. It is in progress. It is such a nerve wrecking
experience. It is a big financial outlay. It is a risky venture,
specifically for accountants on whom prudence was drummed in.
If I do not take risks, I will stay where I am. Risk taking is vital.
There are no certainties in life. If you look at people who have
progressed through their own endeavours without the help from their
mummies and daddies (help with a job interview!), one thing about them
is they are risk takers.
I am one of the risk takers. I always have been. Normally I prefer to
try something new and not boring tried and tested. Though I will ask
what the tried and tested is.
My new website is in progress. My intention, here again, is to get
away from the tried and tested. So much money has been spent. On
Accounting Web, many are going the DIY route. Interesting!
As a risk taker, I only become a brilliant person, to others, if it
works in my favour! It is surprising that once it works out, others
think it is easy.
All my savings plus a bank loan will go in the shop front (if it all
goes through). It worries me, I think about this often. If it does not
work out, what will I do? How will I survive? Savings for my pension
gone!
I wish I was your usual risk averse accountant. My life would be so much more relaxed. I am just not built that way.
