My plan is to work on my goals first and then bring a child into a much better world. If I have my own internet business, then I will have a lot more time to spend with my kid and so will my wife. Now isn't this a much better plan? |
I think it is not.
It is best to ask people who have both: kids and internet business (or some other business, or some other career, or whatever they like most), what is bigger value for them: kids or business?
I am sure that 90% of them will tell you that kids are the most important "item" in their life and business looks so unimportant when compare to your child, even if you own Microsoft.
E.g. ask Steve Pavlina, he has both: kids and internet business, and he knows what is more important to him, kids or stevepavlina.com and dexterity.com together?
Life is short, you are in danger to spend it to less important thing and ignore more important.
Anyway, WHO SAYS YOU CANNOT START AN INTERNET BUSINESS AND HAVE A CHILD? Take both!
I am living example that you can.
