Success is yours tomorrow.

Really.

All you need do is define it by your standards, and not someone else’s.

Stop making it all about the money (unless, after that inner search, for you it really is all about the money).

Oh yeah, and a calendar that I’m in control of… not an employer or “boss.”

If you’re good, why not show ‘em what you’ve really got?  (Hint:  A resume can’t do that.)

If you’re not, why throw yourself into the pile?

EDITOR’S NOTE: I know you don’t want to quit your day job (you don’t, do you?), but Mr. Paul’s advice on finding freelance work is sound and worth checking out.

How many times have you been at work thinking that you would love to quit? Maybe you love what you do but are tired of making a fraction of what your boss collects for the work you do. Maybe you are tired of your job and want to try something new. No matter what your reason, there might be an answer.
