Thx for sharing. How do you feel now ?

Better than I have in years. I’m sleeping well, lost 25 pounds without effort, and am getting back to enjoying my family and hobbies again without the monkey on my back. It’s hard to shake the itch to act on new business ideas, but I compensate by spending time on investing and hobbies. My wife has often commented on how much better her life is too without dealing with a chronically stressed out husband. I wish I had done it sooner. Good luck, sir, I hope you can get the clarity rest you’re looking for.
Glad to hear that. I am definitely tempted to do this but worry about employees well being and if I will be able to sell it with the terms I would prefer.
I had the same concern, but was fortunately able to get all my employees a big raise and a few walked away with life changing equity in parent co. Don’t underestimate the aquihire value of a prebuilt team that works well together.
