Can Life Be Any Better Than This?

My wife and a friend of hers decided to become business partners in an Arts & Crafts store in a nearby town. Now my wife's friend already had the existing business, but she asked my wife if she wanted to be her business partner.

My wife has been exposed to art her entire life, her dad was somewhat of a famous painter in Denmark and her mom also dabbled in paintings as well. So let's just say my wife has a great creative artistic history.

In the years before we met, she had a thriving cleaning business in Denmark, employing at least 20 to 30 people. when times became hard, meaning the economy dropped, so did her business.

She definitely has that entrepreneurial spirit, so of course, when her friend asked if she wanted to be a partner, she jumped right on it. I warned her that some things look good from the outside, but as soon as you walk in, things can be quite different.

Don't get me wrong, their business is coming along just fine. They see each other everyday and some days they love each other and some days, it appears that they want to kill each other.

So, I often laugh when my wife starts to complain about what goes on and I can't help to think, I don't experience any of that when I'm at work. The only thing that gets me mad is when our dogs become restless and begin running around the house like a pack of wild animals.

That's my cue to take a break. I take them outside, let them run around until exhaustion. Then I go back to work. Wow, what a great job I have! There's nothing that compares to it. Most days, I'm in gym shorts and a t-shirt. My business attire...

I really love what I'm doing and wouldn't trade it for anything. Once I thought about opening a small motorcycle clothing store here in Sweden but decided not to do it. I think I would have better success if I could find a relative niche, build a website, join the appropriate affiliate program and tweak it to success.

That's the beauty of doing all of this and life can't get any better. Oh, wait, yes it can! When the money starts rolling in!

If you're ever feeling like, "Why am I doing all this?" Just think about that first dream/thought you ever had about Working From Home. And there's your answer......

I hope that everyone will have a great weekend. See Ya!

Peace!
