Reality Continues to Ruin My Life
After all of last week’s hype, reality has finally caught up with me. I now realize that even though taking a leave of absense and starting my coffee shop is the best choice for me personally, it however borders on career suicide. Not to mention that my parents have flipped on me. They have successfully bullied my uncle into backing out of his partnership offer too. They think I am being immature. How do I tell them this is a wise decision without going into details? I dont want to discuss the war I am waging with myself with them. Even if I do, I dont think they will understand; or worse, they will start handling me.
My roommate and I were discussing this coffee shop move over dinner last night. He wanted to know what exactly was I hoping to achieve by this. For the first time in my life, I didnt have a logical answer. I could validate it emotionaly, but logically I was beaten.
I havent heard back from the CEO of the company I had offered to consult/work with as a back up plan to my coffee shop. He was supposed to get back to me last Friday. 5 days and counting.
It is so funny, thats its almost tragic, to see how little of our lives we actually control; much less steer.

Sometimes emotion is all you need.

Go with your gut instinct or else you will live to wonder what might have been.
