Getting out of the herd

This morning we went on our ritualistic Sunday groceries shopping to Costco. For those of you that don't know what Costco is, it is a wholesale warehouse shopping center that carry anything from home electronics, clothing, outdoor supplies, and food.
Now, the amount of traffic in Costco depends on what time of the day it is.
For me personally I like to go there when they just opened up and there isn't too many people there. If you go there when it's busy, It is similar to driving on the freeway during rush hour traffic with no rules.
And to make it worse, people don't pay attention too where they are going. So far I've seen a couple of grocery cart accidents and it seemed like the people who got into those accidents were in a grocery cart rage state of mind.

So as I was following my significant other down the isle, it dawned on me the biggest reason as to why I'm working on building an online business. And that is so I can avoid the herd of people and do things that are the opposite of what everyone else is doing.

This is a sample of what my future will look like when I don't have to contend with the herd.
- I get up when I want too
- I work as long as I want on my business. And no one limiting the amount of hours I can work so as to not infringe on their payroll budget.
- Go to sleep when I want too
- Leave my business on hold for the day if I'm not up to working
- Spend time with my family and friends
- Take a flight back home to Hawaii whenever I want too
- Work from Hawaii on the beach
- Inspire my family and friends so they realize that they can get away from the herd too.
- I can go shopping when there isn't too many people at the stores
- Sit on the beach for inspiration to create and build another business
Well that is just a sample of what it will look like, and I'm pretty sure that I'll create more when I get to that point. Now let me ask you. What do you want your future to look like?
