Hubert,
I understand completely! For most of my adult life I have taken the =
Christmas break to do some serious reevaluation of my life and work and =
make plans for the next year. One's goals often get smashed on the =
shoals of life however progress can still be made. I think it is =
important to keep careful records of life's successes and failures, =
without the record you really have no idea of where you are at and where =
you have come from. Over time you gain perspective on the seasons of =
business. During the tech bubble of the late 1990's you would hear all =
kinds of non-sense that we are entering a new business cycle in which =
there would be no down periods and profits don't matter. Well, we all =
know what happened. All business always go through cycles. Those that =
learn to weather the down times survive to enjoy the spring and summer. =
Business which can't or won't adapt to changing times and needs are left =
on the ash heap of history. If business has been slow and you are not =
doing anything different to change the course of your work, you are a =
fool if you expect the results of your activities to change. If you =
always waited for you phone to ring, it might be time to pick it up =
yourself and ring it on the other end. It really doesn't matter if you =
hate to make phone calls, that may be just what you need to do to =
survive. =20
Good luck and keep at it.
Andrew
