They get afraid because it seems like everyone is competing with them. They probably think that the best solution is to charge a lower price. They can always work harder. What they typically experience is no freedom at all. They start wishing they had their old job back and they fail. <\/p>\n<p>My goal is to stop this cycle. I have been on this same journey and over the last few years, I have had to take my time to understand the right mindset that it takes to run a business.
