So I have been very scarce around here for months. I make no apology for that nor do I promise to be back regularly. However I do want to give a mini update of what is going on in my world right now.
Right now you could almost say I have many, many eggs in the air and I just hope I can keep juggling them all. I am a Youth Pastor of a small but growing youth ministry. I am the lead pastor of a church plant targeting uni students at ECU Mt Lawley. I am owner and operator of a gardening business in Perth WA and I am also trying me hand at running a gardening hints, tips and traps website online.
I am a person who likes to think about the big picture. I am a person who likes to dream. Right now the biggest difficulty I am having is working out how I can possibly fit all the ‘dreams’ I have for each of the area’s I mentioned above into a 7 day, 24hr per day week. Seriously, in about 6-12 months time, if everything went AMAZINGLY…I will be facing some significant issues!
One of the biggest difficulties is that I am not very driven by money. Read that sentence again, I did say it is a difficulty. I say this because I find it very difficult to choose doing something that will ‘pay better’ over something that ignites the fire within. Often times what I really enjoy doing and what actually provides a lot for other people…doesn’t pay so well.
This hasn’t been a problem really, until now. In just under 2 years I will be getting married. I also am traveling between here and the US/other parts of the world in the next year or so which is not cheap. Then there is the general costs of life. I really need to be thinking about setting myself up while I can…but I am caught dreaming about other things.
Time will tell what has to make way, my gardening business or my gardening blog, but something will have to change in about 12-18 months time!
