I just finished watching an amazing interview with Seth Godin over at Untemplater.com filled with great nuggets of wisdom. But one point in this interview is really driving it home for me. And I wanted to share my thoughts about. To quote Seth in the interview he made a comment

There is a difference between being a freelancer and an entrepreneur:

Freelancers don’t have bosses; they work for themselves but they get paid for the hours that they work.  If they don’t put in the hours, then they don’t make money.

Entrepreneurs build something bigger than themselves.  They use other peoples money and they build organizations that can live and die without them.

If you act like an entrepreneur, but work like a freelancer, sooner or later you’ll go nuts or work yourself to death.

Check out the video after the break:

I have just realized that I have been acting like an entrepreneur and doing a lot of work like a freelancer, including with my current project MK3Y. And as Seth says, this will lead to a lot of frustration. And that’s what I’ve been experiencing lately. I feel frustrated, like it’s to much to take on and like I’m still having to do work nonstop. This has been an eye opener.
