    I can relate. I replaced your “My Own Business” title for “Me Time/Volunteer Time” and the happiness meter is off the charts! 🙂

    I hear you Dave … those W2 jobs always *start out* awesome. Then you begin to learn how “not awesome” they really are after a few months or years. Maybe your boss is a jerk or one of your co-workers is. Then you find out how inflexible they are about taking time-off… and so on!

    Eventually even jobs you love can turn into a drag. Been there done that!

      Yep, that’s why working for myself is so blissful. I’m really super-flexible in allowing myself time off 🙂

    Like this graph. If you’re currently in a W-2 or self-employed, need to make some time for exercise!
