Entrepreneurial and Family

Somehow, this week's lessons and my life coincided. While a great deal of our material spoke about making time for your family and remembering what is most important, I had a very sick child at home with me this week and chose to spend a lot of my time with him.  He is a teenage but it felt more important to sit and watch TV with him or read his homework to him so he could stay current than worrying about my business responsibilities.  I still did my work while he slept and did my homework late at night but I am glad I spent the majority of my work hours with him.  Being in business for myself, in the service industry as I am, I have a bit more freedom to arrange where and when I do some of my tasks.  This is in contrast to someone opening a boutique of some kind.  The type of business that you decide to open can impact how you can arrange your family time so make sure you take a long hard look ant the company you are starting before you begin down that road.
