Last week i decided to swallow my pride and shut the doors to a world I have only ever really known for the past 8 years and that’s owning a business and living in that mindset of always thinking about my business. A lot of people have been asking me what I’m doing and why I’m doing it.
In my mind I have achieved everything I wanted to as a owner operator and that was to own a nice looking setup, enjoy every second of having it and turn a few heads on the Jakes most days.
For me I guess I realised how much my work was swallowing me as a person, I invested so much time into it and forgot about the more important things around me and just being present in the moment your in and not being constantly consumed with my work. I destruggled to find a work life balance and never really found one to be honest. I guess what I’m trying to say is life is short and I decided to let go of what was holding me back from living my life to the fullest and being able to see the world through a different set of eyes. Small business is hard, especially in the world we live in today and I was lucky enough to have 8 great years of owning my own doing what I love everyday. I’m now working full time with a bloke who helped me get there from the start, and I am absolutely stoked to be digging dirt with a bunch of legends that all get along and have a laugh. To my family, friends, clients and everyone who has supported me, helped me and guided me… Thankyou from the bottom of my heart, im greatful for each and everyone of you. I’ll definitely keep this page active and post some cool s**t.
Be good or be good at it ✌🏼
