Risk and Time

Have been spending a couple of hours early morning to do trading.  It was fun and financially rewarding.  Earning a couple of thousands every other days.  The goal of 3M asset should be reachable in 2015.  That is the financial goal I set myself years ago, with a believe that with 3M, even just draw the everlasting 4%, will be enough for my very modest life style.

But I have to look at the cost.  These precious hours are spent on analyzing, trading, calculating stocks.  Is that meaningful?  Does it help me to achieve my mission of

Love,
Learn,
and Serve?

Should I put those hours into growing the schools and companies?
Should I put those hours into writing that might have a wide audience?
Should I put those hours into research that can benefit the world?
Should I put those hours into cello and enjoy the beauty of music?
Should I put those house into exercise so I felt more energetic and healthy?

Don't know, but maybe searching for meaning is the meaning we've been searching.
