Life's priority are as follows, IMHO: 1. God, 2. Family, 3. You and your Career.<br>Chasing
after a career and clawing your way to the top to attain all your hopes
and dreams will only lead to disaster and your health, relationships,
and spiritual growth will suffer. I'm not against planning for your
future, but if that is all you work towards you'll never make it to
where you want to be. Take life one day at time and concentrate on what
is important in life. You can enjoy yourself and have quality time with
your family while geocaching. Work hard, enjoy yourself, trust God, and
love the people around you. Don't ask, "Am I happy?" Happy is a
yuppie word. Ask, "Am I blessed?"<br>

The above is a myth propogated by the taskmasters of corporate
America. Many Americans spend their whole lives working,
saving a nest egg, planning on a fulfilling retirement, only to die
young. Or worse, by the time they retire their bodies are so worn out
they can't do anything but vegetate. The simple solution to your
problem, Scott, is this. Book a day or weekend to attend to the
business of "yourself." If clients want to book something the
same dates, simply tell them you're already "booked."
What's the point of making money if you can't stop occasionally to
enjoy the fruits of your labor. It may sound trite, but there
really are more important things in life than money and career.
Joseph Campbell said, "Follow your bliss." Only then will you
truly be happy. Here's an idea! Bring your balloon to the AJACS
2nd Annual Campout Event Cache and share your love of ballooning with
those who share your love of geocaching. (At a discounted rate, of
course. :))<br>
