I was going to come up with a hustle until I found out my wife was pregnant so I decided to put it to the side. Fast forward to around now, my kid is 2 and it’s pretty exhausting thinking about it now if I did go through my project. I personally couldn’t find myself continuing the project because I had a full-time job and even trying to work on my hustle at home, it gets too distracting but I also WANT to be a family man.
I have no judgment in any way and like to know if anyone ever managed to run their (new) projects while having a kid either on the way or just arriving. So far what I’ve seen in person, it seems the ones who kept their business up don’t spend a lot of time with their partner/kid. As said, I have no judgment and just like to know more about it.
Quit job and went all in on my business about 2 months before our second was do. Hasn’t been easy by any stretch of the imagination, but I think maybe the thought of letting them down keeps me from ever considering failure as an option.
Kudos to my wife for just telling me to go for it, though. She makes it possible every day for me to do work I love doing.
