Are you still driving a Pinto?

Are you still driving a Pinto?

Author: Dan Miller - 48 Days & Glassbox Media February 24, 2023 Duration: 42:30

Ford is no longer making the Pinto, or the Taurus, or the Crown Victoria. The only car they are making this year is the Mustang. They have moved totally to building SUVs and pickup trucks. So what about you? Are you still doing the same thing you were doing 20 years ago? If you're still doing what you were doing 5 years ago, rather than being praised for your loyalty, you may be becoming obsolete.

Episode #872, February 24, 2023

Questions:

1. For the most part, I guess I have been doing work that I love, but after 5-6 years in one place I get a bit bored. Is that normal?

2. Am I writing good enough for others? I have self-published 2 books on Kindle but only a few were sold.

3. I have a hard time deciphering what type of business I want to start. I get caught up in shiny object syndrome.

4. My challenge is having a wife who is almost a complete opposite(anti-entrepreneur) of me(entrepreneur).

5. I am currently in a very unfulfilling position processing (approving/denying) transactions all day. I make the money I need to survive, but feel that I am just going thru the motions, because it is boring.
