Index I
There are a number of people out there who I would like to get to know. Many of them are those who I have looked up to in my career or life. I think what they have to offer me is far more than I have to offer them. I believe that I can learn from their experiences and improve on the way I interact in my work and personal life.

Rather than move toward being “in charge of something”, I’d like to get out of charge of some things. I have enough of the in charge stuff now: I’m the chairman of 3 statewide committees for different organizations, a division head in the fire department, and a co-owner of a company that is beginning to take off. I would actually like to get into something where I can be a worker bee for a change.

Something new to learn – This one I already have on the radar screen. When next semester is over (I’ll be done with my degree), I’m going to take guitar lessons. My grandfather taught me the basics many years ago, and I have a nice guitar now. I would really like to learn how to play it right.

Wow you are in charge of a great deal! Perhaps you can delegate yourself within those various tasks. If that is allowed, you can be the worker bee in your own company and the work interests. If you are unable to do that, I am sure that you can find something to keep your mind busy. You are obviously very motivated and need variety when it comes in intellectual stimulation. I can understand your desire to be a worker bee-it gets lonely at the tip. The old adage says if you are on the bottom, things are always looking up. :)
It's good you are going to find a hobby. I can't wait until I have enough time to take up my interests.
The best I can manage right now is during semester breaks. This is where I get to catch up on some pleasure reading, work on holiday stuff around the place and catch up on work stuff.
Sounds like a game plan.

Trying to not be in charge is a lot eas said than done. Dleigation is a wonderful thing. However, you have to have the right people in place to deligate to.
Congrats on finishing in a few months. This is a good class to end with.
I hope you can find enough time to learn to play the guitar and relax a bit.
Surround yourself with good people, relax, and have some fun. You've earned it.
