When they say it is 'lonely at the top', I think they really mean it is 'lonely getting to the top'. To start your own business (especially an 'unconventional' fastlane business - most people think opening a drycleaning place is really stepping out there) means that you have to self motivate. Everyone else will either 1) not care or 2) actively try to stop you (for your own good, they say). I try to stay on track by setting little goals and marking them off (as Colton mentioned) and I build in little reward times too. Cruising a forum is pretty much goofing off for me, so I have to work for my 'cruising time' but this give me some minor motivation along the way. Also since I am cruising good forums (like this) it is kind of like having a healthy snack ;-). In short, build small successes into big ones and celebrate all of them, big & small.
