Loved your post. I met Robert Kiyosaki at had a chance to talk with him. I expressed the blowback experienced from friends and family when I took an entrepreneurial direction in my life and he reassured me.
He said if everyone thinks you're crazy for starting a business, you're probably doing something right. Keep going. Be your own CEO.
Bam!! From the master himself. He took the path society chose for him and did a 180 degree turn. Truly the motivation I needed.
We must think in similar ways. I was just starting a post on the exact same topic as this post.
It has been in the back of my head since we were in Amsterdam. It just took sitting down and writing it.
