Some thoughts about being there (back on rat race as now):
- You will feel better right away, what you said about being free its excatly right, and you realize how depressing was being trap on a cubicule kissing ass.
- Money is much easier to get, you realize that a salary is peanuts compared with how much you can do on your own if you make it.
- Live like a cockroach, the thing about not knowing where or if my next check will come make me realize I could live (and save money!) with half of what I made with a weekly salary, and in the past I was under credit card debt for going out meals and worthless stuff.
-You will find out that the urgency and strees to find an income will be a great motivation to make it. That is one of the biggest disadvantages in a job you do not have that feeling and that is probably what really makes the difference on the long run.
-Be honest to yourself and decide what you do ASAP, think it thru and once you decide give it all. Be quick on this on 2 things: to see if the field you choose have future and to move to try another thing fast, make sure you go into vocation whatever it may be.
-Dont fool yourself into laziness, have an area free of distractions and give it all. Family can suck all your time if you do not have clear boundaries and scheduale.
Little bit of my story:
- I was lay off in march, decided to sell some products, realized my bussiness model was not possible on the long run (I was not the owner of what I sell, mostly like an employee), but it gave me half of what I used to make on an office, and much better life, lots of free time.
If I had the same opportunity, I will have an "office" and scheduale, decide on a bussiness for the long run, not just to make money fast, be honest on doing what I liked even if took some time.
Good luck making it.
