SUMMARY
Having become a father 3 weeks earlier than expected, April became a quiet month and it was always planned that I would be taking 3 weeks off from doing any form of work whilst I welcomed parenthood.
Despite the early delivery of our baby, the majority of my goals are on track and even ahead of projections with one goal completed earlier than expected. My goal to double my LinkedIn meaningful connections by June was in fact already met in Q1. This was a pleasant surprise as I learned to understand that more people than I expected were warm to the work that I do and I have made some inspiring and positive connections.
I’m particularly pleased with the pace of onboarding new clients which is ahead of schedule even with a month off. I remain committed to only working with a limited number of new (excluding existing) clients this year as I focus on my young family whilst providing the best level of service to my clients.
Whilst some may expect my professional and personal commitments to be reduced, it has in fact gone the other way. Stay tuned for my upcoming article on ‘How Becoming a Parent Has Increased My Productivity & Drive’.
