To live an ideal hippie Kushi existence these personal projects, these business enterprises and these natural outpourings of our artistic creativity, should be the things that we eventually think of as our ‘job’. We can then let go of our old life, of our ‘regular job’ and move into the realm of a true hippie Kushi life.
So what is the answer to this conundrum?
I personally believe the best approach is to keep that ‘regular job’ income for now, so that you have the financial security you need to keep money worries and the bailiffs away. Find time for your own projects when you can (weekends and evenings) but don’t neglect them.
When you are ready, pick one single project from your portfolio (for me it would be setting up my hippie Kushi clothes and jewellery business) and concentrate on only that one thing for now; because trying to work on too many things whilst still holding down a regular job is only going to result in failure.
Bit by bit you can put your efforts into setting that project up, researching the pros, cons, where you want to sell, any licences needed, and who your market is and everything you need to know to make it a success. Eventually, when the time is right, open that business up. It will probably have to be in the evening and at the weekend to start off with but that will eventually change.
Wonderful! I just found your site and plan to spend many happy hours going through it. Thank you so much.
Thank you that’s really lovely, glad you have enjoyed it.
