Do you sometimes curse your employer under your breath or in your head? Do you feel like your hard work isn’t appreciated? Are you under paid and over worked? Do you do just enough work to not get the sack and no more work than you have to? Do you ever feel like you spend more time at work than you do with those closest to you? I have had all of those feelings. I felt as though my job was taking over my life. If I wanted to take a day off from work I would have to book it. If I wanted to go on away for a few days I would have to ask if I was able to do so. I felt like I was not treated as an adult. I had enough of being underpaid and decided to begin working for myself. I have listed these four reasons as my own personal motivations.
