Not dealing with people, offices or maintaining any kind of professional image.
Not sure what to call it, but a sort of liberation knowing I don’t rely on a company or external force to make my way through this life. A sort of stability and certainty I guess.
I even founded a company where there's an office with actual humans sitting in chairs and clients needing meetings and so on... and I don't go there more than twice a week. I'm very fortunate in having a partner who enjoys dealing with all that.
The fear of being 100% tied to an external schedule both with my time as well on what should I do each day is what keeps me motivated to be an entrepreneur, even when I'm fully aware I'm missing on the crazy salaries and perks party boat we've been having lately in this industry.
