Enjoyment

Each of us has to enjoy our days or we will not succeed. But, before taking a job, starting a new business, deciding to become a day trader, salesperson or whatever endeavor you set out for, it is of paramount importance for you to understand what makes you most happy. Do you crave a luxurious lifestyle, approval for a job well done, helping less fortunate individuals, or the physically / mentally handicapped?

I know that I am a serial entrepreneur. In November 2014 my cousin's mom, also my cousin, was wearing a necklace and I remarked how nice it looked on her and the unusual pattern.  She mentioned that her son had maid it. The beginnings of a failed business was born. But, out of this we learned his talents are in computer design and logos, which we are currently pursuing.  I love the challenge of motivating an artist and running a business. I try not to complain. Rather, I seek advise when I don't have the answers.

For me, it's not about the money. At least not for now.  But, all my close friends who are employed and have great jobs are complaining about the commute, how little time they have to themselves, that they're in the wrong industry, how much they can't stand their boss, and a myriad of other issues. And, they conclude that more money would solve all of these problems. I stay quiet thinking.... WHAT? I want to scream if you all had the physical limitations I do and have been discriminated during interviews like I have you might have more perspective on life.

I want everyone to be happy, content, and love themselves. If they know that, they won't have any need to complain. Enjoy what you have, while you have it.
