Is it possible to play and have adventures and still get some quality work done? Of course! It’s not easy at first, but it’s absolutely possible. There are a few approaches that have worked or me! 1. Charge more and work fewer hours If you’re a consultant or have the...
I used to think that I wanted to create a portable business so that I could work around my health issues, and also have the flexibility to travel and explore as much as I'd like. I thought it would give me more time to spend with family (when I wanted to - or if they...
