Priorities

Fred Wilson wrote a blog post titled Priorities today and it resonated with me. There are some weeks of work where I am on back to back calls/meetings all day, every day. Like for Fred, it’s a stressful time for me as I’m not able to spend appropriate time on emails and other work. Also like Fred, I usually use the weekends to catch up on weeks like this.

The past few weeks have been crazy with planning for Q4 while studying to take my Series 24 exam. I unfortunately have not been able to devote my full effort to other things in my life and work has taken a back seat. This kills me as I know there’s a lot of great things to be done for Secfi and I want it done now.

Life will get easier after I take and pass my exam tomorrow, but I know it’s only temporary. Weeks of back to back calls and craziness will continue to happen and possibly even happen more regularly.

I’ll need to look back on my priorities in life when they do happen.
