Starting Over
July 21, 2007 by Kara.
Today is one of those days where you take a deep breath, relax your shoulders, and realize that sometimes in life - you just start over. I have accepted a new position and will be moving. Obviously, this blog - with it’s title - Ho’ohana - is about finding worthwhile and meanful work. Work that makes me want to get out of bed in the morning. Work that lights that passion fire inside of you and makes you want to excel at everything you do. I feel like, in the last four years, I’ve been walking around in a cave in my current job. It’s a great job - and will be a fantastic job - for someone else. But, it’s not a wonderful job for me. I’ve taken a job back where my passion is - in a place where I was happy before - so one can only hope that this will have the same positive impact as my previous jobs had.
This job does mean a relocation away from family and friends, although only about 70 miles, but this too brings an opportunity for a fresh start and for new experiences. Yesterday I made an offer on a house - should hear today whether it is accepted, or countered.
So, for the next few weeks - if I can get a few spare minutes to write and can still find the computer amidst all the boxes, I’ll share with you some of the ways I’ve used GTD in the home buying process already and how I already have planned my new house with GTD and general productivity in mind.
