If that was my attitude a couple nights ago, my quit would be toast right now. We've all tried to do this thing on our own before, with no success. Now look at all the guys on here that are quit because they used the tools they learned on here. I don't know what it's like to be on day 380, but that's a big damn number. Slam the door on the what-ifs. That's the devil playing games with you. Grab your ball and go home. Quit with you all day today Candy.
Sorry KN. This is nothing to do with quit. But getting my business off the ground. They want me to go back to a 9-5 salaried position, it is safe. Not that every job I ever had made me miserable.
Gotcha. Nonetheless, I quit with you anyway, and good luck with the business stuff.
Thanks KN.
I am finding that I am almost reverting in away. About this point a year ago, I used the boards to share my thoughts and ideas. Not for any great purpose or reasoning, but just as a place to capture them.
Both Mcarmo and Wastepanel said it that there is an ebb and flow to activity here. I am really finding that to be true. But the phrase that stands out to me is that KTC is what you need when you need it. Believe it or not that is from Mcarmo.
I am truely frustrated and disappointed with myself for things that I can not control or change. I can not create money or business when there is none. Everyone days its a number game or just push through. I want to, I want to stay at Aflac. For the first time in my life I own my business. But it takes time. Time is something a stressed wife doesn't want to give me.
You started a business? What kind of business? I don't know what its like to start a business and because of that not have steady money coming in but I feel for you. What does it take to start seeing some revenue? I may not have the answers but maybe someone at KTC who reads this might have some pointers to offer? Or direction? Your a bad ass and have proven that hard work and perseverance will get you where you need to go. Hold your head high. Karma will come back to bless you.
It's not easy. On the one hand, you have your wife to take care of and make sure she's provided for. On the other hand, just like you can't quit dip for her, sometimes you have to make some decisions for you as well.
This is not an easy one, but I will say this. Whatever the decision, you and your wife both have to live with and deal with the consequences because it will affect both of you. I'm sure you've already done so, but maybe a nice quiet dinner out on the town where you can have a conversation for an hour or so and really hash out the pros and cons to both sides. It has to be a team decision, because if it's not, somebody is going to feel slighted.
It may also help to not just make the decision for the present. For example, maybe stick with Aflac for another year with the promise from your wife that a year from now, she'll go balls deep with you on your own business. Something like that where everybody wins.
Anyway, hope this helps Candy.
