The last few months have been a big change for me. My whole thought processes on money and wealth have been completely transformed. In good ways I believe. I’ve also been actively trying to revive my life outside of work. When I think about the last two years (when I was trading allot), I can’t remember many social situations…some, but not many. And definitely no intimate ones (intimate not in a sexual sense, but in a relational sense). So, I’m trying to work on this part of my life now. Now that I don’t have the time!
Making the effort
The truth is that my journey is just beginning here to pay back all the debt I owe. And I can’t live my life for the next who knows how many years in a bubble of just work. I’ll go nuts. As much as I love my business, it cannot nor should it sustain me as a whole person.
So…I am making more efforts to reach out to others, even when I don’t feel like talking about my situation. I think I can find a good balance of being intimate without going into huge detail about my nasty situation. I miss my friends from a few years ago, and I’m starting to reconnect with some of them, and it feels really good.
Tracking my Debt
I’ve yet to find a really great way (beyond excel spreadsheets, which is what I use at the moment) to track my debt in a nice, neat visual manner. There are just no good wordpress plugins that I’ve found on this. I may look into writing one if I can justify spending a few hours on something that could be a good motivational/tracker tool for me. If anyone has a good plugin or tool for this, let me know. It would have to track debts individually and output some sort of bar chart or nice chart.
The House
Still no updates here….haven’t heard if the buyers have agreed to the higher price that the bank came back with to approve the short sale. Good news is that I still have a place to live for another month before the move to the office.
