Now that I have chased everyone away

I am sorry for busting the chops of the various lurkers out there. None of them replied, they simply stopped looking at my blog. Oh, well. And on to today.

For anyone who was praying for me about the improv group, the leader of the growth council had a death in the family and they again postponed meeting on my business plan. I have learned patience through many issues in my life, so I will try to apply that patience here.

So, as well as waiting for that, I am waiting on some deals that are out in the ether in my business. It seems that the early part of this week may be taken up by sitting around and waiting for the phone to ring or the email to ding. I am generally not a patient person, although as I mentioned above, some issues in my life have created more patience. I am learning to wait, learning to be cautious, learning to listen. I would like to think that at some point I will master this, but I severely doubt it. Not only because I am so far from patience now, but also because it does not seem to be a trait for which I was born. I tend too much toward the impulsive, even though I have learned to wait a little. The good side is that I can adapt quickly under pressure, the bad part is that I do not wait to allow things to settle before acting. I guess balance is good, but I do lean to one side.

So, I will try, and trying as it is, I will wait. I will wait for clarity. I will wait for vision. I will wait for guidance. I will wait.
