We are still scrimping personally because profit is much less than we projected at this point. I'm constantly thinking about my business, even in bed at night. I go to the moon and back for my clients but don't yet feel they notice. I'm investing so much time in my business, but it seems to be having little impact in my field or community. I've put my business before family, even at crucial times.
Cash flow is stable or comfortable.
I am as profitable as my financial obligations require. I love my work and consider it the right choice of a livelihood. My business allows me flexibility and freedom. My time and money are getting me the best return I can achieve, personally and financially. My business challenges me.
