running your consulting practice...please explain.

would that be missing working for yourself?

yes - I'm missing working for myself. I'm doing menial tasks today for an internal client that are not creating any value. Just more work.

definitely one of the downsides when you work for others

how disappointing is that..Mind you at least you are aware of the difference between value and work..Some people --just by virtue of being

busy think that they are accomplishing something.

that's very true. People can keep busy being busy.
