This client’s issue was that she continually put in over 10 hours a day in a draining work environment. Although she had desires to do other hobbies and side businesses, she was too exhausted to do anything about those other dreams.

If each one doesn’t understand what needs to be accomplished for a successful business, it will be a difficult road.
