GREAT ARTICLE: ONYX WHOLESALE 5783 SHERIDAN FRONTAGE RD. ARVADA, CO. 80002



This is a great piece written by a guy named Paul Graham, who is a dot com success turned venture capitalist. He’s a fantastic writer and has good ideas about a range of subjects.
This essay in particular talks about how bad “the norm” has become, in a lot of areas, namely jobs.

"Technology tends to separate normal from natural. Our bodies weren't designed to eat the foods that people in rich countries eat, or to get so little exercise. There may be a similar problem with the way we work: a normal job may be as bad for us intellectually as white flour or sugar is for us physically.

"I began to suspect this after spending several years working with startup founders. I've now worked with over 200 of them, and I've noticed a definite difference between programmers working on their own startups and those working for large organizations. I wouldn't say founders seem happier, necessarily; starting a startup can be very stressful. Maybe the best way to put it is to say that they're happier in the sense that your body is happier during a long run than sitting on a sofa eating doughnuts.

"Though they're statistically abnormal, startup founders seem to be working in a way that's more natural for humans.

"I was in Africa last year and saw a lot of animals in the wild that I'd only seen in zoos before. It was remarkable how different they seemed. Particularly lions. Lions in the wild seem about ten times more alive. They're like different animals. I suspect that working for oneself feels better to humans in much the same way that living in the wild must feel better to a wide-ranging predator like a lion. Life in a zoo is easier, but it isn't the life they were designed for." -Read the rest of the article here.

Through the Scentura Creations opportunity its your chance to never have a boss again. Be the boss. Working for yourself is what you were always meant to do.
