The Reckoning

I've been told by everyone close to me that my new endeavours are progressing as well as can be expected for something new - and that, with a little more time and advertising, will blossom into a successful business. I don't doubt that either. After all, in this day and age, the need for experienced computer security professionals is a growing field.

Unfortunately, we're dealing with a government funded initiative here; and the fact of the matter is that the administrators of the program may or may not have the subjective power to extend my financial aid unless they are convinced that I am meeting my stated goals. It won't matter that these goals needed to be set before I received any instruction on how to plan and set realistic goals.

All this is ranting and speculation on my part. The actual review happens tomorrow, and I'm eager to plead my case. Whatever happens will happen. Whether the funding continues or not, I'm in this for the long haul. It would just be so much easier if I didn't have to scrounge for my next meal.
