Missing Posts

Well, then, it seems that if you miss something once, you'll most likely miss it again... and again, and again, until it's completely forgotten about. At least that's how it seems. Especially considering I didnt have the net to be able to blog while I was away, and now that I've been back for well over two weeks and this is the first post I have to show for it... or is it? Almost.

Well, in the last couple of weeks I've been involved in some interesting situations. Oakden Bible Group took a turn or two, given that some members had a hard time coming to grips with the concept of open discussions meaning varying points of view would be aired. A lot of conflict broke out and in the end I have taken a step back from the whole thing because I find it difficult to interact with people when they're less than willing to actually listen to what is being said. I find it even more frustrating when people take your comments out of context, or worse still, twist them into something else so that it serves their purpose. I've had enough journalists do that to me in my short time to never want that to happen again.

I also lost my employment at DHQ. It seems my services are no longer required now that I've got them back up to date. It's a little distressing that I don't have that regular, albeit small, income appearing in my bank account like clockwork. It has meant that I have to make some serious changes with the way I do things at home, and have to now implement some stragies to increase my mortgage broking income to supplement. So I've been working on business card designs, layouts for websites, newsletters, etc. to develop a better system for client communication and to generate business. It's full steam ahead, and I have a short time to acheive it. The down side of finance broking is that what you sow today you don't necessary reap tomorrow, or the next day, or the next week, but rather in three or four or five months time. Any loans I write today, I'll have to wait til they settle and then I get the income from that two months after that. It's a long and drawn out process, but one that it very beneficial once the ball is rolling.

Better get back to it. No time to waste. Time is money!
