XII. THEY WORK FOR THEMSELVES

“If you don’t build your dream, someone will hire you to help build theirs” Tony Gaskins (Life Coach)

 

Take a few people from the history who were highly successful and see for whom did they work for? Did they work for themselves or did they work for someone else? For instance, Steve Jobs worked for himself, Albert Einstein worked for himself, Henry Ford worked for himself, Soichiro Honda worked for himself, Bill Gates worked for himself, Walt Disney worked for himself.

Do you see that? I am not against being an employee and working for someone else but I would always prefer and love to work the way I want and for myself so that I can fulfil my dreams and not spend my whole life for someone else building their empire.

Working for yourself offers great flexibility, less limitations and higher rate of success. Imagine a life in which you can live on your own terms, have the freedom to choose how you spend your time and the projects on which you work. With enough planning, patience and determination, this situation can be yours.

 

“There is only one success: to be able to spend your life in your own way” Christopher Morley (American Journalist)
