Quitter Conference -
JOIN ME IN SEPTEMBER AT THE QUITTER CONFERENCE
One of the BEST people to follow on Twitter. Wittiness has to fit into 140 characters so it was built for someone like Jon. It’s Jon sized comedy.
That’s the scam. Strong words, but true. You’ve been scammed. You traded years of your life to be part of a giant con in which you are most definitely not the winner. If you’ve been playing that game, it’s no wonder you’re frustrated. That game is over. There are no longer any great jobs where someone else tells you precisely what to do.
“How long does it take your dream to become a full-time job and sustain you? Longer than you want it to.”

Who told you that you could start a blog, work for Dave Ramsey, write a book, host a conference. Who told you that you could do those things?
