Looking for Freedom: I'm going to cancel my 24h contracts with my medical clients.
I have made up my mind.
I'm going to cancel my 24h contracts with my medical clients.
It took a while because I don't like to take a lot of risks.
With my decision, I will lose them for sure.
But the reward no longer justifies the constant worry of a phone call 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
Of course, this has all to do with the rise of crypto in 2017.
It has changed my life.
It has given me more freedom.
Truth be told most of what I do in my business no longer has my interest.
I have always done it with pleasure for the last 10 years but crypto is where my interest lies now.
I think about it non stop every day and I'm sure I'm not the only one the planet (or Steemit) that feels that way.
To make my plans easier to reach I have taken some money out of crypto and put it in the bank.
Even though I believe crypto will completely transform the world in which we live. It's never a bad idea to have some on the side for a rainy day.
This is something I would recommend anyone to do.
My other business activities I will keep intact and I'll work as normal while I'll slowly discover what the future holds.
It will be a weight off my shoulders when these contracts end (it's 3 months cancelation time).
I also have never canceled any contract so it will be a new experience for me :)
I wonder what they will say.
2017 has been one of the craziest years of my life and I like to believe it's a continuation of a decision I made when I was 27 to get my head out of my ass. (a.k.a stop being a lazy ****)
I stopped playing World of Warcraft, started exercising, put more work in my business and also discovered crypto in 2013.
It sure had an effect!
I can't wait to see what 2018 will bring.

Wow you hid it from us , I would have never guessed .
Honestly do what your heart wants , if you spend ur whole life doing something you don’t like , you’re not really living life
Agreed. What is there to live for if you don't have something exciting to wake up to.
I think the majority of people in this planet spend their life doing what they don't like but do for earning money...
Sounds like you've got yourself a New Year's resolution before the year is even over. ;-)
Working on a business / own body is a great way to trade a bad addiction (e.g. WoW) for a healthy one.
I truly believe that the most important changes in one owns life are about habbits.
If your habbit is to get home after work and fire up the PC for some grinding in a Video-Game, then the treshold to do something more productive is nearly as high as the threshold to grind in a pc-game when your habbit is to come home and fire up the PC for some coding/blogging/vlogging.
Same thing with eating healthy, working out etc etc.
Regarding the less-risk. While I've never done 24/7 for clients - the work for @smartsteem is sometimes truly nerve-wrecking. (Which has often harsh consequences on other humans that have to interact with me.)
Especially, when money and automatisation is working together and the possibility of bugs is always present.
So I guess - congratulations on deciding what you don't want to do :)
Medical clients? I didn’t knew you were a doctor?
Either way good decision, 2018 should be a good year for crypto, the best probably, and dedicating your time to this will be worth it.
Haha! No, I work in IT. I maintain their systems.
Blockchain Technology and Crypto-currencies has changed the way we Think and Work. It has has given us flexibility and freedom to choose what and how much we want to work.
So true.
I don't want to be that guy, but some need to be working in a sweatshops out there so we can get goods for a low price XD.
TRUTH :)
