Spring forward

Daily Draw: Shadowscapes Tarot, Four of Wands


Spring is here and the Kierun fly forth in a moment of celebration. Got me thinking...

Month three of the four year plan and we are still on target - Unicorn leap one

Got back into a joint research paper. It IS difficult but doing it is LESS stressful than not - Unicorn leap two

The house is looking a lot better than it did at the beginning of the year - Unicorn leap three

Unicorn four awaiting take off (the dreaded thesis) but could that be about to come up roses? 

Another thing - almost three years experience as a lecturer now so a respectable career leap could be on the cards. 

Could this fifth as yet invisible unicorn give unicorn four a kick up the bum? 

Wishing all a happy leap into the weekend and the fourth month of the year...

  1. Sounds like you are making great progress in a variety of areas, so no kicks in the bum yet! :) You make a good point with #2: it is less stressful to actually do something than it is to simply worry about doing it in most cases.

  4. well done on keeping goals in the headlights. I'm wondering what would happen, or what the result would be if you didn't do a thesis? Is it required to get your degree? Would it earn you more money or respect? Would there be a lapel pin to show you've done it, and then do the secret handshake with other pin holders? I still grieve a bit when I think about my lifelong dream of seeing Egypt. But when I gave up flying, it followed I wasn't going to Egypt. But it didn't kill me and it opened the channel of where can I travel if I only care to drive there?

    1. It's a doctorate so the thesis is the whole degree but I already have plenty of those... I need it to keep my job...but I'm ready to move on...it would be a passport to a better position. If I didn't do it I would probably do another one in a subject I'm more interested in....or get out of education altogether and start my own business...and learn how to paint and sew...it would be strange to fail but you're right it wouldn't kill me...
