Decisions, decisions, decisions…

For the past eleven years (not counting a two year hiatus six years ago) I have worked a very corporate, very full-time day job. For the last two years, I have also worked a very part-time tattoo “career”.

I want to leave the corporate day job to pursue my art career full-time. But, there is the consistent paycheck and the medical insurance that it provides that I have a hard time mentally giving up. Being self-employed, as is the case of my tattoo career, is highly risky and very unreliable as far as steady income goes. And don’t even get me started on the cost of health insurance for the self-employed.

I am very thankful that I have the ability to do something for myself. I am just scared to break free from the reliability the corporate job offers…. Decisions, decisions.

Until next time...
Erik
