Crossroads already!

As I mentioned in my post yesterday I am in for a new adventure.

I was laid off a couple of weeks ago and have done alot of soul searching recently about who I am and what my future holds and it's been really interesting to say the least.

I find myself with basically 3 options at this point:

1. Continue down the same path and take one of several developer or senior developer jobs that I have been interviewing for.

2. Pay this "career placement" company a bunch of money to market me and eventually find me "the perfect job" as a highly paid IT executive.

3. Start my own IT Services business.

In yesterday's post I had basically decided to hang out my own shingle.

Several events today have caused me to not rethink it but to re-consider some of the other options.

I'm still leaning towards opening my own business, especially since I am investigating this state sponsored program where they train you for running a business, help you find funding and continue to pay the unemployment while you start things up.

There is still much investigation needing to be done but I find it interesting that just when I have a plan of attack basically decided upon, several other things popup and try to dissuade me.

Is it an attempt by fate, the devil or whatever "negative" being that you believe in trying to dissuade me from the correct path for my life?

Is it fate, God or whatever "positive" being that you believe in trying to dissuade me from a HUGE wrong turn in my life?

Or is it simply a coincidence?

Much to ponder!

Until next time.

New Plan

Well there have been some major changes in my life recently and it has caused me to rethink a ton of stuff!

So I've decided to start my own business which will be a combination of an online venture as well as a traditional IT Services (Web Design/Development, Network installation, hardware upgrade and repair, etc...) company.

I'm still working out the details and putting the plan together but it's a whole new world!

I'll keep you posted about what is what and when.
