Great piece Tim thank you for writing it. I’ve always been skeptical of American hustle culture yet here - it is kind of built into our DNA from birth at least that’s how I feel about it. I choose however to not partake in it any longer and have found peace. Congratulations on your daughter, enjoy every precious moment because in the blink of an eye she will be a teenager! ❤️🙏😂
Nice... I haven't had a 9 to 5 job in my life. Freelancing has given me time to read one or two hundred books, live all over the world and take in several thousand hours of podcasts, educating myself. I have a question, related to writing. I've started my Substack and it's growing faster that I anticipated. I publish about 4 times a week. Do you find that growth is significantly faster if you publish daily? Would the extra work that entails be justified?
Tim. As an 'older person' having been through several ups and downs in life and business, I admire the fact that you are writing and have reached conclusions about life (and work) which I wish I had learned at an earlier age. I guess that's the same regret most of us have.
Don't worry I have no intention of stalking you or joining a Tim Denning cult! Mind you, some probably enjoy a good crucifiction or blood sacrifice!

My respect for family has kinda been dented by the fact that I got into debt because of family. I got a credit card because they said it would be good for credit score and some such. Plus, it didn't earn interest so long as you always paid. It was true. I didn't have to pay interest. Until my brother needed help... I did help, but it was beyond my financial capacity. He promised to pay me back, but he never did. So, that debt is still on my card and earning interest for the card company.
A brilliant piece, Tim and congratulations on the birth of your daughter. I’m freelance and wouldn’t go back to 9-5 working for the world.

Fantastic read! Congratulations on your daughter. Enjoy that time because in what seems like a year from now, she will be driving.

As always, thank you for sharing your wisdom. I appreciate you
You are my religion!
You Nailed It!
If only this was possible. You are lucky you can do this lifestyle. Would be impossible for many

A wonderful piece, yet again. Thank you for your wisdom nuggets and congratulations on the birth of your daughter.
My sentiments exactly.

Hahaha, you so gently put it down on a hot tar road. Love it!
