Courage

It's no secret that I haven't been in a place mentally, creatively or physically fulfilling when it comes to my job. And most days when I don't think things could possibly be worse, things find a way to get worse. Of course all of this is mental whining because in a state where unemployment is the worst of all the 50 states, you know when to keep your mouth zipped and your blessings counted.

For months, a couple years even, I have been dreaming of being my own boss at something. Anything really and I believe I have the tools to make it happen. I just don't know if I have the inner spirit to make the leap. Already we live on the razor's edge of poverty vs. just making it by and I worry that there will never be a good time to jump forward blindly.

So this question goes to all of you. When do you jump and hope you land on your feet running instead of in a mushy heap?
