Becoming "Too Comfortable"

[FrankMiller]

I'm not sure if anyone can relate, maybe this is a unique situation, but lately I've become "too comfortable" with my current situation.

I'm doing pretty well. I'm making the equivalent of a slightly above-average salary from my online projects.

Definitely enough to live on. I have outsourced and automated everything, so I honestly hardly need to check up on my stuff. I could not touch anything for 3-4 months and still be okay. I am basically living a true "4 Hour Work Week."

This might sound good to some, but the truth is..

I'm too comfortable.

I have all my bills covered, I don't really have an responsibilities, I don't have to answer to anyone.

This has been going on for about 2 years now. I fear that I am spoiling myself.

I can't find anything motivating. I can't find anything that produces the same returns as this, because it will actually require WORK and add more stress to my life when I'm already content...

But I want to achieve more. Or, at least I want think I do.

But then I think of the headaches of having clients, dealing with additional employees, or having investors, and it doesn't seem worth it to me in my mind.

I dunno. Its kinda ridiculous. I suppose I'm looking for some inspiration, or a shift in mindset.

Thanks for reading. Any thoughts or insight would be appreciated.
