When I made [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]MOS[/words] my main job I knew I was going to have to sacrifice some of the luxuries in life I was used to when I worked for my family. There have been some hard times along the way, there have been months when I would have to choose between paying the server bill or rent. I have skipped many meals and suffered for the cause. What I try to keep in mind is that I get to do what I love for living and that is what matter most. I have had some good times and in the times when things are good I put money away for the rainy days. I have to say that I feel blessed to have been in business for 13 years and have a job I love to go to everyday. If it means sacrifice sometimes, so be it, as you said, others have it much worse.
I'm thankful for whatever/whoever has directed me in the paths I've taken throughout my life...looking back, it seems more random than it actually was. Fortunately, for me at least, that I truly enjoy what I do for work and the struggles/sacrifices/work are more like challenges. I look at PE similarly where the end-result is far less important than the journey...recognizing this creates a mind-set that is more consistent and less apt for frustration cuz the result is secondary.
So my sincerest 'thank you' to you, Mike for all the sacrifices you've made for me...you have made a profound positive difference in my life
