Owning your own business is a double edged sword. We could not have attained the net worth we have without it. But now we are in a position of desiring the "old" days of working for someone else. (Actually being able to "punch out" and leave the job behind.)
Take a real vacation, what would that be like? Camping out away from email and cell phones while on vacation? The good old days.
Reality is we take care of our clients businesses first and if we are lucky, we can take care of our own after hours and on weekends.
I remind myself we have to be careful what we wish for. We used to wish to own our own businesses. Now we as self described workaholics seeking ER, we are wishing to slow down.
All in all, at a ripe old age of 35, It's a good (although tired) place to be.
We try to check the board when we can as RE as our ultimate goal, but truthfully there just arent' enough hours in the day!!
