Default Re: Getting in over your head......job related

guids,

I can't offer any advice for your business, although it's always interested me, but here's my own version of what you're doing.

About 3 weeks ago I quit my job as a radio station sales manager. It just stopped being fun and I felt trapped, so I guit with no real prospect of my next job. In the following weeks I have:

1) Tied up alot of money in 2 real estate developments.
2) Step my self up as a sales rep for a building materials wholesaler. It's commission only, and I can work as much or as little as I want.
3) Lined up a few consulting gigs with ad agencies.

I'm stressing more, drinking more, sleeping less, and trying to figure my finances out. Oh, I didn't mention I'm trying to finish the contruction of, and move into, my new house.

All that being said, I currently have no regret about the situation - maybe give me some time. I can do what I want, make as much as I want and am capable of, and I don't have to answer to a boss.
