I’m a reasonably successful entrepreneur, but I’ve been fired or quit every FT position I’ve had. FTE is just a total different experience from running a company and being good at one is different from being good at the other. The only middle ground I’ve found that has worked for me has been consulting where I’m still my own boss and can pick up small projects here and there.
Being an entrepreneur is a high risk / high reward venture though and we’re not entitled to an easy, well paid salary if we fail.
Great read though and glad the author found their groove eventually. A salaried position doesn’t have to be the default fall back.
