I am currently a Self Employed Bookkeeper and Tax Preparer. I will become a CPA and the Owner of a firm that specializes in Fractional CFO Services and Tax Strategy.
With AI moving in the direction that it is, having a 9-5 job is riskier than starting your own business.
Being self-employed and being a business owner are often used interchangeably, but are drastically different. Both have their pros and cons, but thinking you are a business owner when you are actually self employed does not unlock the freedom you were looking for.
There will come a time when the friends, who stopped being your friends because you no longer party or accept their plans, will ask you how you became successful. Your reply is "I was telling you how by saying no to the plans that did not align with my goals"

At your funeral, friends and family will argue over who gets your belongings.
People will talk about the food and the venue.
Your life will be summarized in 2-3 paragraphs.
Conversations will shift from your life to their lives.
Your friends will drive away thinking about what’s next on their to-do list.
Some people won't be able to make it because "something came up."
And most of the people you know today won’t even be there.
You’re gonna die.
People will move on (in weeks not years).
Do what you want.
I consume more info than I can implement. And then want to implement everything at once without prioritizing what needs to be done first, resulting in little to no improvement. The business has been growing accidently. I need to start making an effort to be more intentional
If you hired an employee that did not need training, and actually just needed to ask a few questions about your business and knew exactly what to do and immediately free up your time, would you pay this employee more?
It is the primary goal of the business owner to provide the lowest cost possible to their customers AND the highest cost possible for their employees. The only way to truly achieve this is provide so much undeniable value that the market price of what your selling does not matter
If you didnt agree with something the other political party from you did, and now your defense is "they did it first" when your party does the same thing, you dont have beliefs.

I would like to slow down the growth of my son and speed up the growth of my business.
I only have control of one, and in doing so, this is the first time im actually feeling the sacrifice it takes.
