I think I'm going to be able to make it to a million in the next year or two. But my wife doesn't have that confidence in me. She says she doesn't want to have to go back to food stamps. She says she is tired of living hand to mouth. She says the kids deserve better than to have to deal with crack heads on the way home from school. I tell her she just has to wait. I mean, I know I gave her a really great lifestyle after I was promoted from grill guy to supervisor. I think I might have spoiled her. What do you think? So how do you guys manage your family when they don't understand what you are doing?
I know where you're coming from. It's difficult to be the only one that has vision. I've never been married (engaged twice) and the main reason why is because of my business endeavors. The women I dated were never able to understand me...which was perfectly fine with me, but it made it difficult for the women. It takes a special kind of woman to understand that life has it's ups and downs. I've read a ton of your comments over the last year or so (I know I hardly ever post) and you seem to be a bright and intelligent guy. Lord knows I just got out of a slump myself and one of the reasons is because of the woman I'm now with (the last couple were constantly bitchin about money). She's willing to ride the tide with me.
I think it's unfortunate that you have kids involved, but if she insists on leaving...let her. It's not beneficial to have the kids see their parents unhappy and constantly fighting (I grew up in that environment). Try to work it out if possible. Although, she will have to share your vision if you want to be successful. If she stays and and continues to be negative, all it's going to do distract you from doing what you need to do to better you and your children's lives. She can either decide to be a part of it or not...it's her choice.
Keep your head up and keep grinding! You'll soon realize the light at the end of the tunnel is not a running freight train gunning for you and your life, but a guiding light leading you to prosperity. Negativity breeds a negative environment. Put an end to it...one way or another!!!
