Expecting the Unexpected
      About Me
      I'm Mike, the owner of an athletic development company called HPC. I recently quit my financially secure day job to 1) finish my PhD and 2) take my business full time. It's a risky venture and a major redirection (hence the blog name) in my life. I love food, hate sleep, and want to be my own boss. I have mild OCD and ADD but I will always post, so please come back if you are interested in following this venture and maybe picking up some random bits along the way.

    Well, I’ve had a whirlwind couple weeks since my last post. In many ways it’s been painfully slow waiting to hear back on things. In other cases things have changed fast and furious. I’ll lay out the developments over a series of shorter posts. The quick low-down is that my situation with the Impact facility fell through a couple weeks ago when an outside company purchased operational rights to the facility and promptly dismissed the existing staff including the administrative staff who had been working with me. The good side is that I didn’t get involved before the new group came in because they don’t seem to be going the same route that I want to take my business. Additionally, I’m still working with the same people that had brought me in to Impact facility in the first place. One of them in particular is a real hustler. He gets things done, he has the same business vision as I do, and he’s well connected both locally and nationally. So in many ways, things aren’t going to plan…but they are still going very well. And to be quite honest, I was fully expecting things to not go to plan so these ups and downs are an exciting and expected part of this transition. More tomorrow…
