Don’t Build a Business That Pays $1.50/hr
|
There is something that bugs me a lot… It’s a new trend that steals fathers away from their families. I’m all about building a business to provide for your family. It’s about becoming a Present Provider. Yet, I observe so many fathers stepping into the world of business with a side hustle mentality. The goal is to make a little extra money on the side. But when we calculate the time and the money, we’d often see a real number of $1.50 per hour. That makes you an Absent Provider, not a Present Provider. Sadly, most won’t even notice this. They keep on building. How do I know that? I learned through failure. The only difference is that: I set bigger goals. You can either do it with time and fail your way there— The bigger goal is to quit your job or reduce your hours in your business. That’s why I don’t blame the Absent Provider. It’s just important not to get stuck being an Absent Provider. |
