The Labor Day holiday weekend is upon us once again. The stark contrast between 2009 and 2008 is remarkable; unlike the wild social extravaganza of last year, this weekend promises a high degree of quiet and … well, labor.

I intend to continue with my writing as much as I can. I hope to get out a little, perhaps on Saturday, but that remains to be seen. It is as if a switched has flipped, and the old pattern of well-intentioned procrastination has yielded to a sense of “git-r-done” driven in large part by an ongoing frustration with how long it has taken me to finally get to this point, where I am just starting to realize income off my business efforts.

In any case, yes. A weekend at labor. But a good kind — the efforts that pay back in terms of goal accomplishment and a feeling of self-worth. It has been a long time coming, but Gillikin Consulting is finally real.
