Never permit a dichotomy to rule your life, a dichotomy in which you hate what you do so you can have pleasure in your spare time. Look for a situation in which your work will give you as much happiness as your spare time.
-Pablo Picasso
This is what I strive for, to do what I love and love what I do, all the time. I mean, I like what I do right now, but it's a source of stress monetarily. I really hope this thing with Crate & Barrel pans out. That would mean a lot more money coming in, less stress in that regard, and I'd be USING my degree. Imagine that, someone who uses their college degree!
Ultimately, I would like my jewelry business to take off, but I'm not sure if that dream will ever have time or money to happen. If I could get to a point in life where I was my own boss in any regard, I would be happy. My persoanlity dictates that I be in charge. I don't mean IN CHARGE in the bossy, get me a water with a slice of lemon way, just in the way that I don't like the stress of someone telling me what to do without a rhyme or reason, and no room for me to question them.
