My best friend (and husband) and I have been adult webmasters for 7 years now so we understand and admire each others commitment to our careers...but even with that understanding, you have to have a good balance in life - work hard so you can play hard.
It's taken us awhile to really find that good balance between family, work and life in general; but once you start focusing on getting fulfillment out of every aspect of your life - work, family relationships, friendships, etc...only then can you really enjoy the fruits of your labor.
quiet, since you've sacrificed it all to get to this point, I hope you take some time to stop and smell the roses along the way as well.
I really feel for anyone who's dating or married to someone not within the business because I'm sure it would be hard for anyone else to understand the dynamics of the time needed to really make the industry work for you. Kudos to those of you who have gotten divorced and found your own groove, and also to those of you who are happily with someone who's understanding of your business.
{Hugs} to those of you who struggle with finding that good balance in life.
