My work life has reached a point where I am struggling and it is looking likely I will have to leave my job. Due to worsening health and other issues, I don't think I can deal with highly demanding and stressful roles anymore, as it is putting too much strain on my health.
I have always wanted to run my own business as part of my stresses are sticking points within companies and politics that prevent you from getting on with the job.
I was curious if any of you run your own businesses and whether they provide a good income for you (don't have to give specifics as I appreciate that is private).
It's an idea I am mulling over, I just have worries about whether I will be able to cope and will my health let me down - so it is something I am going to have to think hard about.
We are a varied bunch, so I am interested to hear your stories for some inspiration. Why did you decide to take the leap into running your own business. Was it what you expected?
I have my own business. I opened a bakery six months ago.
well done i hope it succeeds and grows
Yes, at the moment the business is making good profits, and most importantly, I see joy and pleasure in the eyes of my visitors. I tried from the very beginning to create the most comfortable atmosphere for them. Believe it or not, at the very beginning, I had difficulty choosing a good bakery name. It took me a very long time to choose the name myself, to brainstorm with my friends. In the end, I was helped by a free AI-powered name generator that gave me great options for my business. We live in a wonderful time.
