Jon Acuff wrote a fantastic book. Quitter. I highly recommend it if you are thinking about starting your own businesses. The highlights of this quick read focus on settling on the fact that you are going to transition from your current job while progressively moving towards your “dream” job.

Reiter Thinks

Sometimes the wisdom and clarity of a seven year old makes me stop and think. My daughter and I were talking about her future and what she wanted to be when she grows up this past weekend.
