scatter-brained interests


Some days I feel like my brain is going to explode. The reason? I'm not quite sure what I want to be when I grow up and it drives me crazy.
At this point in my life I know that I have an interest in public relations. I want to work for a company that I believe in, I want to help create strong and lasting relationships with audiences through open, honest and transparent communication and I want to work for a company that gives back.
But what about my interest in photography? And a fascination with all things culinary? Don't forget my plan to write a few books one day. Oh, and how could I leave out the few entrepreneurial business plans I want to one day set in motion?
What happens to all of these things when I am busy with the job that makes me some much-needed cheddah? How do I balance the career that sustains my life with hobbies, passions and interests that remain at the forefront of my mind?

My Dearest-- I also feel ya here. Employed or not, I wonder, is this REALLY what I mean to do with my life?!

We need to have a tri-chat with our good friend Erica Swift. I think the three of us could go on for hours on this front!

I love you and your scattered brain! ;)
