Ever feel like you are stretched to thin

by frank.gorton on 07/19/2008

WOW, I am feeling a bit overwhelmed lately. I have a number of small projects on my plate and at times I feel as though they get the best of me. I think the problem is I REALLY want to change the type of work that I do, and create something that is mine, or at least I am a part of creating. Too often I have spent time working my ass off for others and I thin it is time now for me to spend the extra hours each day on working for myself. I have learned early on in my career that companies do not always take care of their people.

So I am working my tail off on the dating site and will have a great new feature coming out that will increase level of safety for all of the members on my site. I am launching our Good People Good Food site soon, and am kicking off all of the social events for this effort this week. I am going to be focusing on the Baltimore (local), NYC, and LA areas.

I just finished shooting a photo shoot for the alumni magazine that will come out in September, and I sure hope that it turns out better the the Baltimore Sun article did, which they had several technical snafus on their end.

I really feel like taking on a partner in all of this, but am trying to find the right person that I think would be a good fit both personality wise, but also skill set. I think I am looking for that over the top extrovert that can help in the social side of the business.

In times like these I remember that my father always called me a dreamer, and I think he is right, I dream of building something fun for everyone, and rewarding for myself.

Peace
Frank
