Josh Kim dot Org

Still in Cincinnati. I definitely cleared up a lot of things on the to do list, from canceling cable internet to driving the family SUV to get it fixed to dealing with the college loan people to tracking down all the tax-related paperwork my parents and I need. I really wanted to see if I could get this retainer check done and over with so I can drive back to Illinois. It might be I really am going to be here until Wednesday.

I wasn’t able to get a whole lot of work done: Still feels like I’m on a vacation. Rather than working, I’ve been catching up on a few TV shows here and there (Battlestar Galactica, I’m so behind) and reading quite a bit of the Bible. Right, that and continuing to think where my life will take me.

To tell you the truth, I’m excited. I don’t know what I’ll be doing after 5 months. I don’t think I can stress this enough: I’ve never had a time in my life that I wasn’t 110% sure what the next step was to be. I guess it comes with the territory of actually being able to support oneself, but it also comes with being kinda self-employed.

I will be having an interview with the good MBA people at UIUC on the 19th of February. More or less a information session… and that’s what I’m looking for, more information. As soon as I get back on campus, I’ll be yoinking some GMAT books from the great Library we have. Looks like I have to write four essays, two pages max per question, for the application. Yikes. Too bad I like to write.

Personal Finance is too fun. Learning more about retirement planning… so much fun. I know for a fact I’ll be maxing out my Roth IRA very soon. Huzzah for that. If only I had some kind of system that could help me transfer some of what I’ve learned to the world…

Right. Blogs.

Still thinking over what I want to do with this blog.

“Christian Coding Korean” was what I wanted to go with. But I want to add even more to it… I’m stretching my subject areas too far as it is. Not only am I going to be writing for people, but I’m actually going to be using the blog to retain information; to help me remember what I’ve researched and learned through my browsing the Interweb.

But I’m interested in so much… Does Josh Kim dot Org just stay that way? A site just devoted to whatever the heck I’m interested in at that moment in time? But that means… I’m going to be writing endlessly…

I mean, I can sit here and write “personal” posts continuously, with a Bible open before me, going through verse by verse, just being convicted through every verse. But that’s not very productive, in the sense that I’m not meant to be doing that: It’s not like I’ve been called to some sort of a blog ministry.

I guess the problem is I’m not the best at anything. I’m just okay with a lot of things. But I like being okay at a lot of things… If there was something I learned in college (other than the subject matter), it was that one of the most important things in life is not being the best at something, but to create something to be best at. For some reason, that entrepreneurial spirit was sown.

But what to reap? What am I using as nutrients. Hopefully, massive amounts of learning and research on my own. But it can’t be my own. I must ask for help… from others and from God. Asking help from God is easy (okay, sometimes… after humility takes place). Dealing with people, though… that’s another story.

Where the heck am I? I feel like I just wrote like 2 pages and got nowhere.

Right, back to the point. Rethinking.

If I want to use the blog as a passive income generator, I need to make sure that it can be used that way. I guess I need to crank out more worthwhile posts in terms of the subject area I choose, whatever they may be.

Oh man, that’s going to require some category reorganization. Retagging, also. And I’m still thinking about ripping the RSS feeds into categories that make more sense.

Things could be easier if I just started to create more domain names, and just created content based on each… hmm…
