THIS IS MY STORY
(see below for the conclusion)
THEN I QUIT AND STARTED MY OWN BUSINESS (THIS BUSINESS)
AND LET ME TELL YOU - BEST DECISION I EVER MADE. ITS DRAINING TO POUR YOUR CREATIVITY INTO A CORPORATE POT, WHERE YOU DON'T EVEN GET TO TAKE HOME LEFTOVERS.
I APPRECIATE MY VARIOUS JOBS OVER THE PAST DECADE, BUT I SURE DON'T MISS THEM. I FEEL FREE. FREE TO EXPERIMENT, FREE TO TRY INTERESTING THINGS, AND THE ONLY PERSON I HAVE TO PLEASE IS ME. (AND MY WIFE AND OUR LIL BOY..THIS IS REALLY ALL FOR THEM (I'LL REFRAIN FROM MAKING A MUCH BIGGER POINT ABOUT THAT HERE) AND BY DOING WHAT I DO WELL, PEOPLE, AND CLIENTS ARE DRAWN TO IT. THEN I GET TO PARTNER WITH THOSE PEOPLE WHO UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO, AND THEN... WE MAKE SOMETHING SPECIAL AND UNIQUE.
