what works
I think some of this is true, we get tired of what we do and lag off.
Any kind of job, weather it's working for yourself or the other guy/gal, gets borring after awhile.
It is true you have to "Leave your comfort zone" to advance yourself most of the time.
You can make more money by going from a one/two man show to a 15 man crew outfit, you will be managing more than working, you will make more profits as long as you have enough employee's, as you will not make as much profit per man as you did by yourself.
You will generally not get the job done as good or as fast, employee's slag some when your not around.
You will need to spend more on advertizing to keep those employee's working so they don't file unemployment on you.
The market does have slowdowns, seasons, other paint outfits poping up or established ones growing can all a sudden cut you off..
You will have extra paperwork for those employee's, and other tasks...
Most people say they are much more stressed managing 20 guys than working small, and they have to work more hours, it can be a risk, or can make you more money.
If it isn't broke, don't fix it!
I think if your in a dip or getting bored, try working in a fast food place or a temp in a factory job for two weeks... take the time off and JUST DO IT, you will appreciate your business after your first day, and everyday after that even more so. If you make it two week, you'll come back to your work with hearts flowing from you and realize how good you have it.
