11 Weeks and Counting

So tomorrow marks 11 weeks since my last day at Atlantic Lottery and 11 weeks since I began Mike Randall Communications. So far so good :)

Life certainly has changed significantly in just under 3 months.

First and foremost I am definately spending more time with my family and friends. As well, people tell me I am more relaxed and more like the "old Mike".

For me it's the freedom to do what I want and work on the kind of projects that excite me the most.

Has every day been like Disney World? No.. but every day has been fun and exciting.

Going out on your own isn't for everyone. Many great practitioners end up making lousy consultants. For me it"s a fit that works. It allows me to live the life I want how I want.

To anyone who actually follows this - thanks. Thanks for your words of encouragement and belief that I can succeed. To those who are thinking of going into business for themselves I say go for it if you like living each day as a new beginning and you have the confidence to know that tomorrow will be okay even if you're not sure who's paying the bills right now.

Looking forward to week 12 and beyond.
