How Do You Say Goodbye to A Profitable Working Relationship?

I've had my courses hosted on an online school for several years. It was once my only source of income, earning everything I needed, and affording me a good life. But, as the online school community grew, income dwindled.

Now, after a change in management, the restrictions of this host are bordering on ridiculous. This means that I must terminate all of my mentoring on writing, and work for them exclusively, or say goodbye to them and venture out on my own.

It is a heart breaking choice - like breaking up with a boyfriend. In fact, I can't sleep! I would never have thought that breaking up a working relationship would be so emotional. Honestly - my head is more messed today than it was when my X told me he wanted out of our marriage.

It isn't' the money. I'll just make two more blogs to cover that - my head is full of stuff to talk about. I don't think it is the security either, because one month I'll make enough to cover my Dell lease, and the next, I actually make something decent - but it can never be relied upon.

I think it is that frustrating aspect of being an adult - making choices. Sometimes it is hard to fire clients, and I need to look at these people as a client.

At least, my experience in the industry taught me to act fast, before I was grandfathered in and lost my #1 income earner.

The fact of the matter is, I made a choice, and now comes the hard part - living with it.
