I run a modestly successful small gardening business. It took me a year to really get it going properly. For context im in my 30s and have worked in really demanding jobs to get into a position to start something.
Ever since I went full-time my sibling has had this attitude like I just won the lottery and wont share. Other people have also started acting like im driving around in a RollsRoyce with a monocle, I don’t really get it.
I give my sibling left over gardening supplies and i’ve sub contracted another friend who lost their job. Trying to share my success when I can. Whats with the hostility? Have other people experienced this kind of thing?
If it’s not valuable and comes from a place of bitterness, Ignore and move on. Everyone wants riches and ownership but they don’t have the spine, discipline and capability of denying gratification for the long term, to achieve what it requires to build something. You have to be thick skinned until you make it and be selective of your company.
