You are not immune to being an exploitive nightmare to yourself! Be aware!
Medical complications that nearly kill me…
I awake from emergency surgery
My first thought my first action I can’t speak I am motioning to the people on my hospital recovery room
“Need paper, call the following people. Tell them this. Say what I wrote exactly.”
Status updates on client projects and that I was in the hospital but would be fine (no evidence of this I hadn’t asked about my condition after having just woken up from, i echo, emergency surgery)
“Hi your project is going to be compromised because I am trying not to die”
and I apologized for the inconvenience
As soon as I medically recovered I finished the projects and ended business with those clients. Over the ensuing years I worked to remove myself from that business entirely.
This is not an anti business client rant — I was responsible, I was the boss, and that’s my point.
It was MY dumbass company.
If you work for yourself you must ensure you do not become a nightmare boss to yourself.
Unfortunately you are singly responsible for this. It’s part of the weight of being your own boss. Welcome to the part of your life where you now know this.
I have spent the last few years on an
mission to convert my business into an art studio and consider every day I am alive gifted time.
Do not allow yourself to exploit yourself.
If you find yourself staring reasons why you must — I get it — I can only say, and I sincerely hope, you begin to unbuckle this. It will take time it will be expensive and embarrassing and horrible in ways that I know and you maybe can imagine
Do not. Allow yourself. To exploit yourself. It isn’t worth it.
