I can say yes to most of the questions. I am a little slow about taking risks, it depends upon what is involved and change can be a challenge at times because I am a process warrior.

Hi Cindy! First let me say thank you for your open, honest and REAL post. I am not sure I heard the question you wanted to ask, so please do post it. Here are some thoughts though:
1-I get the impression that you believe that being and entrepreneur means begin poor. Not true! It will actually give you more control and power over your money then you ever had before. As an entrepreneur I can ALWAYS make more, or less depending on how hard I want to market.
2-also the best risk takers are VERY strategic, so risks are calculated for success.
3-I think teaching a child how to make money for themselves, versus for the man is a great gift to give them. They learn form you.

One last thought: Are you connecting and writing daily right now? Connecting with other authors, networking in the industry? And if you are writing daily a book is really just 30 days away! Maybe while your son does homework you write and show him some of what makes you happy! Ann

Nice post. I believe what you say is very true. Now, let me ask you this. It is a question that comes to my mind a lot. I am a late entrepreneur. I guess you could say that I got sidetracked with other things before I got pulled back to my spirit. I take many risks that are hard for me. I like stretching the box that I feel I allowed myself to be pigeonholed into in my younger days. I make no excuses. I allowed it. Anyway, I see things as a challenge, not necessarily from a fear stance. There are more substantial risks that I would love to take, but I don’t see it as feasible at this exact moment. I have a son that stills had about three more years of school before he heads off to college. Until that time I feel my roots should be stuck in something safe. The thought of downsizing to a crappie car and living in the middle of nowhere in a small one room cabin doesn’t scare me at all. It appeals to me actually. I would love to be a hippy farmer that has electricity for the purpose of a laptop, Word, and high speed internet access.

Anyway, I feel to really be successful at what one truly feels a calling for, they pretty much have to do it full time. If I could spend my time everyday writing until my heart is content, I could make a living. It may not be a lot in the beginning; it may be meager. That being said, it would definitely make me happy. I cannot see doing that to my son, though. Then, maybe, just maybe, in not doing it I am doing him an injustice. I guess if that is the case the injustice has already been done. I do plan to do the above when my son goes to college. I’m planning already. I figure it’s waited this long, three more years isn’t gonna break me.
