Default Re: Taking the Plunge

Him quitting is job is a very bad idea. Business is very risky and very often fails. If you are missing certain strengths then you should work on improving your abilities in those areas, especially since you're the one with all the free time. It sounds to me like you are depending on him way too much and it is making you a lot less self reliant and capable than you should be. It almost sounds like you want him to do all the work in the business. I think you should get a job so he can reduce his hours and then you can both work on the business and he wouldn't be as aggravated. If you get a job you can buy your own car. A real entrepreneur is very self reliant and does whatever it takes to succeed and finds ways to overcome or go around any obstacle. A real entrepreneur is not extremely dependent on other people to do the work for them. A real entrepreneur doesn't make excuses like "I can't do this and that" and "I don't have these strengths." A real entrepreneur just gets busy and does whatever has to be done and works extremely hard. I think you're making excuses for not getting more done on the business and you want your guy to do most of it or all of it for you.
