I got up, told him thanks (I was serious because I needed that clarification). 4 months later I took another sales guy with me, our lead operations guy and started the company we have today. We were backed by (at the time) a 90 year old company in Portland of which I am now one of the owners.

I laid in bed at night for several weeks saying wtf did I just do. My wife told me to grow some stones and get on with it. It is meant to be.


So I guess my point is this- You know your worth. If you are worth it, grow some stones and get on with it.

I love hearing success stories like this! Congrats

That's the American Dream in a nutshell.

Not getting to go fishing this year has really bummed me out and I have to work extra to get my van fixed. I'm not as motivated as I was before Summer 2020. It's getting hard to want to do anything really because everything cost money to do anything. SO work work work that's all there is to do.
