Countdown to Freedom - 49 Days

It's still morning as I write this, so there are 49 days until I reach the end of my out of the home experience. For those who don't know, I put in my resignation at the radio station earlier this week. I've become tired of being an employee and it's time to spread my wings as an entrepreneur again. At the end of my final day, I will have been working out of the home for 1 year and 10 months.

I'm already starting to seed for potential clients and contracts. Six weeks is not much time to get the groundwork in place, but I'm confident I can do it.

I got quite the boost last night when I found two potential clients in my neighbours back yard. How cool is that?

I must try to remember to take my business cards with me even when I go to casual bonfires in people's backyards. Last night, I just wandered over in jeans and a t-shirt and didn't have a card on me.

I didn't feel like running home and grabbing them. I think that would have revealed a level of desperation that I don't want to portray. I mean, really, it's one thing to spot a potential opportunity in an unusual or unplanned situation, but deliberately going home to get my cards would have left a nastier impression than not having my cards on me did.

Anyway, those are my thoughts for today. I have much writing and preparing to do...

There's only 49 days left after all!
