What if you're working to get your own business off the ground?

[–] foggy@lemmy.world 20 points 7 months ago

Nobody dies wishing they'd worked more.

Most people die wishing they'd spent more time with loved ones.

If you're working to get your own business off the ground, but you still make time for friends, family, and yourself, you're fine. Especially if your own business is bringing you and those around you joy.

It's all a balance.

Sure but that's none of your business

I was that guy, and its good to some extent, but its also not good, there needs to be a balance. I worked so hard I was able to retire young, but I really didnt need to work as hard as I did.
