Thank you Jill for bringing up the topic of stepping out of the box and Dien for the words of wisdom.

It is nice to know that others here are in the same boat as I am. At the age of 33 I am a father of 7 and still working a full time job. I have sold a few eShowcase sites and a couple of cd business card packages but have done so over a time period of a year and a half.

Many people ask why I still work a full time job. I respond with things like "insurance is too high for self employeed with a family my size" or some other "excuse". I guess it is just because it is just too easy to work the day job (comfort zone).

I have taken the steps to independence, though they are baby steps. Time to turn those "steps" into "strides".

Thanks again.

Dennis
