Take a walk in my shoes...





Green Grass.

I have been a full-time entrepreneur for almost 8 years.  That fact continues to shock me because it means that for nearly decade, my full-time job has been a job that I’ve created for myself.  I don’t set my alarm clock, I work from home, I start and stop my day when I choose and I don’t have to ask for a day off.  On countless occasions, others have told me how great my life must be and how incredible it is to be your own boss.  There is truth to that; being in control of your own career is very fulfilling and satisfying but this perception of my life is a prime example of the grass on the other side appearing to be greener.  There’s a reason why there’s thousands of motivational quips, mantras and mottos created to encourage business owners; in between all of those awesome moments, being an entrepreneur can really suck… a lot.
