Bootstrapped to $24k+ / mo 🥾
by Kyle NolanA month ago, I left my corporate job to go all-in on my side project! 🎉
And today, https://projectionlab.com is doing $24k+ MRR.
But something I struggle with is giving myself permission to ever relax or take a break.
Solopreneurship feels a little bit like the movie It Follows. 👻
The focus and clarity from going full-time is incredible... but whenever you are not moving forward, you know "It" is slowly and relentlessly catching up to you.
Do you finally have the freedom and flexibility to take a morning off and enjoy a hobby? Sure! .... or maybe that's when It will finally strike 😳
My hope was that going full-time on PL would restore some of the work/life balance that has been absent for the past 2.5 years. But I see that will only be possible if I actually allow it to happen.
In 2024, I think I'd like to work on that.
So here's a question:
How many of you are successful at carving out guilt-free relaxation time?
And how would you describe your approach to balancing growing (and worrying about) a business with the other things in life you care about?
