Well, guess I'll start off by saying that the primary reason I'm here is because I'm tired of working for someone else. I've always been a hard and very motivated person in the workplace and Id be lying if I said it hasn't paid off to some degree. I have a job that I sort of like and I'm paid pretty well.
The part that gets me though is the continuing to wake up every morning and being told what to do. Being forced to work late or on weekends when I have other things I need to do, like spending time with kids. Only getting a certain amount of time off per year and having to work around everyone else's time off. etc etc
Im newly single and have thought about doing something for myself for a little while now, and now I have the time to do something about it. I am willing to work for it and make sacrifices because I am confident it will pay off in the long run. I have two daughters and I want them to have a nice life. There are a lot of things I want to experience in this world and I want them to experience them with me.
Im tired of the buy this course and that course bullshit. I just want to find my way.
Thanks
