Today I was faced with a friend who was bored professionally. I remember when boredom was a distant concept to me. I also remember when it was all to common.
"How do I get back to the point where I wasn't bored?" she asked.
"Why go back when there's so much ahead," was my response.
What we needed to do was move forward. Progress to a new stage where boredom had no footing and every new day was not only a challenge to her expanding career, but a dare to her creative inertia. Of course it is one thing to say this is the way to go, and another to go. I'm not worried though, she's one of the few women in know who can implement logic rather than emotion at will, and follow it.
I need to save $4,000 in two months in order to enjoy my upcoming vacation without too much concern. It's tax month. Yippee.
