A few years ago, I ran a weekly column for work at home moms, or those who want to be. One day, a young mom said to me, “I started a virtual assistant business two years ago, but I still don’t make enough to stay home with my children. My husband told me to choose one or the other: my job or the business. I don’t know what I want. What should I do?”
I felt for that young mom.
I’m an introvert by nature and tend to shy away from any form of publicity that requires me to meet and greet people in person, as a result, my business isn’t as far as it could be. I’ve turned down television interviews, radio interviews, and even a chance to be on a reality television show.
But what I couldn’t relate to was her husband’s words, “Choose one or the other.”
