The Weekend!
Sat. 5 June, 2010
1 Learn. Well I figured today that if I'm going to be running a business then I'm going to need a better office space. I've already got the space ready and the office furniture I have at the moment is sufficient, so my main problem is the computer. Im currently using my partners lappy while lying down in bed in front of the TV which isn't very professional. If I get my own computer put into my own area of the house then I can conduct business better with few distractions (not counting facebook). I spent the day looking around computer stores to see if there was anything that interested me. I soon found out there's so much to learn about computers and the range at the shops isn't great so I got home and researched everything I need to know. The computer I now want is something with at least 4 GB RAM, something in the range of an Intel Core i5 processor and a hard drive that's bigger than 500 GB. Theres plenty online that have those specs with decent prices some under a grand so it seems I have a decent selection of choice. I just have to make one.

2 Improve. My knowledge of computer technology has increased massively thanks heaps to my need for a new computer. My general knowledge prior to yesterday was "do I want a laptop or desktop? Apple or HP?". I didnt even know what Alienware was. Now I want one of these...
3 Contribute. Driving lesson. Teaching my partner how to drive a manual car. Even though it was for only 10 minutes. Even though she thinks I panic when teaching her, therefore making her panic, I still think I gave her some decent advice to make her a better driver. She just doesn't know it yet.
4 Enjoy. A hot cookie from the cookie time bar in Queenstown. It was just magical when the temperatures started to drop late in the afternoon. That combined with a hot chocolate from Patagonia was just what I needed to stop my winge about how cold it was getting.
5 Action. Taking the action to research computers. A new computer and work area will be a huge step if I want to succeed in the financial area of my life. When you're at work your focus should be working. When you're at home your focus should be the time you spend for yourself and with your family. If I plan to work from home then I need to display professionalism by seperating them from each other.
