i don’t ever wanna work a J O B again ! i want to be self supporting for myself and my family. being on a ‘payroll’, doing something i don’t even like doing, just to ‘survive’, while some filthy rich person takes even MORE money from me, is not my idea of living. i want to master my talents, and use them to network and make connections with people, subsequently making money. it may take 10-15 years (hopefully not!), but i will dedicate myself to doing what makes ME happy – and that means building !

Well I haven’t STARTED it yet, but I have my business license. Now the possibilities are limitless. Right?
I have made a number of half harted stabs at businesses. The only time I put my full effort in amazing things happened. I realize that I need to focus on one idea. Get the plan written. Start making money with it, and grow it.
