I AM A Control 'Freak'...And I'm Proud Of It!

It's a strange thing...

I SHOULD be under more pressure from a work perspective as I now work for myself, and therefore don't have the 'security' of a regular income.

But...I'm probably more 'laid back' about the whole thing than I have probably been at eny time in my working life.

Why?

Well...it's because I no longer have one eye on the future instead of both eyes on the NOW, that's why!

What I mean is that I no longer give a second thought to the "what if.." monster.

-It doesn't bother me what other peoples' reactions MIGHT be.

-It doesn't bother me that I don't have a 'secure' (whatever that is) income.

-It doesn't bother me that I don't have much of a pension in place (I'm too busy re-investing in MYSELF instead)

- It doesn't bother me that I don't try to ASSUME what COULD happen if I did or didn't do 'x'.

I wish I had this mindset when I DID work in my 9-5. It would have saved me a lot of stress in the process...that's for sure.

It's taken me a while...but I've come to terms with the fact that it is me ALONE who is in control of where I will be in five years' time - NOBODY else!

And...if you look hard enough...I think that you'll see that you NEED to be in SOLE control of your future, too.
