Why do I seem to know so much about this? Because that described me for the past 10 years of my corporate life. I climbed the corporate ladder and became a General Manager and then a VP of Sales for another company. Why then did the job seem to suck the life out of me and seemed thankless at best? I read the books and tried to figure out how to survive leaving a steady paycheck while simultaneously supporting the family. Why such a strong urge to jump out of a perfectly good airplane. I felt trapped with no good options. In a stroke of luck I happened upon the Max Muscle franchise where I could be my own boss and help people directly on a daily basis. No corporate purchasing manager taking your work and putting it out to the lowest bidder (because it's their job), no upper management person to pass judgment on work they never saw you do, no corporate politics. To make this change all that is required is your passion, a strong work ethic, and a willingness to put everything you own at risk. Sounds scary until you see how many middle aged managers are swept out the doors in "downsizing" operations (or shall we say cost cutting operations) in the height of their careers. But if you can find that "fit", and make the dash across the field and over the barbed wire, it is the most wonderful feeling. The only person or persons you need to worry about pleasing at that point is yourself and your family. Good luck to everyone.

Reminds of a book I'm reading where the author talks about our current existence and technology with this scenario; if the average American watches 28 hours of TV a week, then by the time she is in her midseventies, she's spent more than 10 years staring at an electronic box. Ten years! Ten YEARS????? I have to ask myself, is this really how I want to spend my time? Staring at the TV, moving from one box to another to log on to Facebook or some game? Rather than being "normal" and plugging in to any box, I choose to remain grounded and live in the present. I think it's called "living deliberately." Great insights!
