    First 4/5 years of growing my business it was mostly 3 day weekends, and one 2 week vacation to visit my in-laws on the other side of the country. Now that we have grown and I have a good management team in place I work only 2-3 days a week, take a month off completely during the winter and we go somewhere sunny, last year we went to Costa Rica, took the kids out of school, was a great experience. The business doesn’t really grow during this time but that’s okay, we have matured enough that 10-15% growth a year is our target. Business is in manufacturing outdoor furniture type products.
