I actually asked the question because I think it's an important one. If you
check the reply to my question, Erica says “I did freelancing for about 8
months last year but could not make ends meet”. Everyone has a dream, but
not everyone has a plan or the means to see it through – most entrepreneurs
fail the first time. That's a cold hard fact. Asking the question “why not?”
deeply is important because it surfaces the fears and realities associated
with Plan B – if you hurdle the problems that make you feel stuck, problem
solved, you're on your way to making Lemonade. That's what I was asking.

Enthusiasm is good, but without a plan it can drown you.

It really makes me grateful to be out of the corporate environment as an employee! Not having to worry about this at all is a great place to be! In the comments you mentioned "Whats stopping you from doing this now"... To me this is the big take away from the post! If you watch the move and have a desire to do something different, start something new, change the world or just your corner of it, why not start today! <br><br>I think too many people feel stuck in their job and do not realize that they could start creating a PLAN B at any time. What better to have a PLAN B going so if your PLAN A gives you a lemon you are ready to make lemonade! :) Loved the movie Steffan!
