When you work for yourself you can make your own schedule. This is great but be prepared for the 24 hour 7 day a week commitment. You may not be sitting in a desk from 9 to 5 but you are always “on”. You will have to be very disciplined about turning off and taking time for yourself, away from the business, in order to keep your sanity!
