Right now I'm sortof coasting and while the income from that is valid, it's not enough now that I am divorced. I have ideas for affiliation and some are in coartship but it's moving like molassis.

My biggest success as an entrepreneur was the realization that I could afford anything I really wanted. Granted, I don't happen to want a Porsche, but anything I really want, I can have. I can take a day off, or a week off, or a month off. I can pay for my husband to quit his job and go back to school. I can play with the baby without worrying about being late for work. If we want to buy the expensive guacamole, we do. The freedom that comes with that is amazing. Great conversation starter!

It was finding a partner with whom I can really work. She's motivated when I'm not, and she lets me motivate her when she's not. She has skills that I don't have and vice versa. We genuinely care about each other and each other's families. She also gives me an added reason to be accountable for what I do. Yeah, Tamara rocks!

I don't have a million dollars, I don't have a huge business. What I do have though is the spirit to continue with my ideas. They say you have to fail how many times before you succeed?? And how many people give up after the first couple of tries?? We have to keep pressing on and that's what makes us successful until we're truly successful.
