I've always considered myself a motivated go-getter and I'm on a journey pursuing passive income online as an Affiliate Marketer. Currently I am having challenges building a website and my creative urges are starting to lower down because of the need to finish my work at a set time as you rightly pointed out and on the other hand I have this mentality to never tolerate laziness and waste time. So I really needed to hear that and not carry the guilt of taking a break. Much appreciated!!!

Having the ability to put things on hold sounds like a dream. As an employee, more is always expected and other people set the deadlines… it’s also hard when you know there will be no break after a given project, more work is always given as a reward.
