Would I like the idea of my wife being away for a week at a time? Of course not, but if she felt strongly enough about it and it would further her goals in life then it's a different story. As much as the idea of "we" is important, if you love someone then you respect their life choices.


Are you married?

As much as we all want to give you advice, I think you need to walk your own path. Make the calls that work for you. This is between you and your wife; frankly we have no part in this nor are any of our opinions important in YOUR decision making process. It's your opinion that matters as its your LIFE.

Well things changed as I started to state early. It turned out that I would average about 45 weeks of travel a year. To me, that seems a bit much. Plus the wifey and I had a really good talk about how things are and the way they need to be. I think we may be on the same page now.

That said, I'm working on expanding my consulting business while keeping my current job and possibly getting into some real estate ventures with some friends. I realized last night when I finally got home at 11:30pm how much I liked doing the little bit of consulting work I do. Its actually a fun job. I can't honestly say I've ever felt that feeling about any of my other jobs. And now the wifey is more understanding of my late hours. Plus I can play the "well at least I'm home at night. I could be travelling you know".... ;)
