Of the past and future...
Things done:
- Morning workout at Fitness First. Added one more set to each of my workouts. Great to feel that I'm making progress. It's great to have some amount of weights in my workout schedule... but I've decided that once a week is enough.
- Lunch with Marc in the uber fancy MBFC. Great to see him and great to hear that he's up to some seriously cool things in Platts. I told him about the non-oil/gas stuff I was getting into... while he wasn't unsupportive, he did encourage me not to get out of the business.
I am surprised sometimes at how naive I am. Of course, my friends/contacts from the business won't really be interested in what I'm doing outside of oil/gas! That's what connects us... and anyway, we're not really close friends after all, just work colleagues.
I should only try to meet-up when I am serious about discussing oil/gas opportunities. Otherwise, it isn't really worth their/my time, although it is always great to see old faces.
- Filmed the first video for the MDS drum educator application process. Majorly relieved to have made some measurable progress!
- French film at Alliance Francaise... 'Un amour de jeunesse.' Another very typical French movie (which means that I'm not too sure I got it), but it was good to take a break and catch a movie.
Lessons Learnt:
I am likely to get quite a bit of cynicism from people because what I'm doing doesn't fit in with their typical idea of success. But that doesn't mean that it's wrong, or that I shouldn't do it.
But hey, I knew that already.
