As it turns out, I’m not the only one who has had to put on hold the journey to freedom from 9 to 5; Cubicle Coder also has other higher priorities in his life right now. But the keyword for me is “on hold”. Not abandoned nor forgotten. Just delayed. Unless you’re capable of intense unwavering focus, as Steve Pavlina seems to be (just read his blog and you’ll see what I mean), the path to your goals usually isn’t as straightforward as you would hope; sometimes it’s more circuitous and takes longer. I say, unless you’re in dire straits, don’t worry about it. Enjoy the scenery wherever you are.
