My business has paid the bills for 15 years in a row, so we must be doing some things right, but we never moved beyond 400 square feet. What's the difference between a businessman who feeds himself and one who takes it to the next level? In fifteen years we've grown to 3 1/2 people and are considering hiring another. I'd love to hear from the big guys what they did differently from the 95% who are "successful" and will never expand beyond the spare bedroom.
I'm the only thing that holds me back. I've worked alone for 15yrs and have no intention on changing things. I'm simply not interested in "expanding" if that means having employees and driving somewhere to go to work, no matter what the return is. I dont need to make millions to be happy. I'm the only person in my office and I make "only" a few hundred thousand per year, and I'm perfectly ok with that.

I dont have to answer to anyone or deal with anyone's problems or incompetence.
