A Look to the Future?

In the midst of market research, identity creation, and tidying up last semester school tasks for graduation we are selling our condo. Now, with 4 months till moving day, it would seem that this would not be the stressful and surprising adventure it has turned out to be. We listed it "by owner" and my wife is using it as a practice tool for her career aspirations in the realestate market of Montana. We recieved a call the other morning from a person who wanted to look at the place. He asked if this weekend would work and we said it would. Then, he said "how about 10 minutes from now?" My wife looked at me, about to jump into the shower for work, and said "sure." This is where the fun began. We cleaned the entire house, got the dogs out, got dressed, made coffee, set the table, turned on all the lights, and hit play on the Thelonious Monk in the CD player. It was an impressive display of teamwork and resposiveness. How am I going to tie this in the my future? With a new business, there are going to be times that are crazy, abrupt, and unknowing. You have to be ready for each of these times. With the right people invovled, no task is impossible and any curves that are thrown your way can be handled with confidence and under control. It will be important for me to hire the people that can take ownership of Cafe Evoke and act as though it is theirs. The market will set the pace and we have to be in position when things begin to change..
