My New Definite Major Purpose In Action

About a month ago I updated my definite major purpose to read…

“My definite major purpose is to be

living with my girlfriend near the beach

in an energy intense city in Florida

while making $4000 + a month building the Privateer Nation

before I’m 32 years old.”

A month went by and nothing really happened to forward me towards realizing my definite major purpose.  Then I walked into my day job this morning and my boss said “We’ve got this new company procedure we are going to need you to follow.”  When he was done explaining the new procedure I knew that things were going to change.  I’m both excited and scared.  I’m excited because the result of this new procedure may be that I get to work on the Privateer Nation full-time.  I’m scared because I do not know if I’m ready to build the Privateer Nation full-time.  At this point in the game I do not think I’m delivering enough value to prospective citizens of the Privateer Nation.  I’m doing a decent job but in my opinion some changes need to be made to up the value I’m delivering.  I also have never found a good source of leads for prospective privateer nation citizens.  If I ended up building full-time right now I do not know who I’d prospect all day.  I would literally be calling out of the phone book.

We’ve all heard the quote “Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it.”  I know that creating that new definite major purpose caused this new “procedure.”  A part of me wants to trust the Universe.  I know that sometimes on the road to getting what you want the old needs to fall away.  However I’m still human.  The idea of suddenly being out of a job when I wasn’t ready to build the Privateer Nation full-time yet is scary.  I will live and it may make a great story some day.  However at this moment I can say that I’m concerned about the future.  Especially since I’m burned out at this moment.  Throwing myself into building the Privateer Nation full-time right now is the last thing I was planning on doing.  However having said all that, it makes sense.  If I’m going to be making $4000 a month and living in Florida with my girlfriend by the time I am 32, I need to take action NOW.  I just feel like I got shoved in the right direction this morning.  I know I asked for it but that does NOT make it any easier…
