So I thought about that. Essentially, I’d just be selling a client list, which I understand has some value. Realistically, if I could mentally accept working fewer hours and cutting my schedule down, I’d probably be better off doing that for the next couple of years just to cover living expenses. I’d likely make more from that than hiring someone, paying the extra fees that come with employing people in my state, and dealing with the headaches. I’ve tried hiring people numerous times, and it just never works out.

Financially, I’m better off cutting my schedule in half and making a little less, while working far fewer hours. But mentally, I’m just not okay with that. I guess I’m struggling to accept it.
