6 Month Old Yellowish Watery Stools

... a year later

It 's been a year. Since I was fired.
Since, contrary to what I told everyone (or almost), I gave up and took my work to be sure but unsatisfactory employee (after 9 years) to venture into the world of the professions.
How did it go? Stra-well. Despite the years of crisis.
I write not to boast, but to give courage to all those who want to dare. Of course we must choose an area where there is demand, we must be able to do something that others can not do, be specialized in other words. You can not make a leap in the dark not knowing if its know-how has a market value or not.
I luckily I chose a virgin market. So much so that apart from doing the web marketing consultant, that help companies promote themselves better on the Internet, I started doing a lot of training.
There are many companies that have difficulty moving through the maze of the Internet. And they ask you what it means (to be), Facebook, blog, twitter, etc..
In recent months I have done many different things: the creation of small sites for restaurants and B & B at restyling of portals and complex projects, from promotion through Google use of social networks, to create did not know how many more corporate blogs . I made a speech at the BTO , the moderator at Rimini Web Marketing Event , web marketing lessons to hundreds of accommodations ... And sometimes, despite all the heavy mental I did it with enthusiasm.
I worked with tourism (sadly) but also with areas unknown to me. I hated the to fight on google maps New Year's Eve in Florence and loved the ease of placing a site for "chips"!
change jobs and change the areas but the common denominator is the need to be found by those who are looking for something. And now they all on the web. It seems funny in a society so common, there are some shortcomings so thick.

back to me ... Today work differently: sometimes I get up at 10 but I work until 2 am, sometimes spent days tour of customers, conventions, seminars, sometimes I find myself working on Sundays and holidays! Can I carve out time off on days that are working for others, but if I take a vacation I have to talk about I do not know how many social networks, and after 3 days if I do not control the anxiety gmail.
collaborators with whom I work at a distance and I've never seen.
I thought I would be nailed at home but they are always moving, in fact I bought a netbook "handbag" for writing, blogging, send mail from anywhere I go.
with customers and payments luckily I have big problems, I have more with my accountant and the bureaucracy of so many documents!
I am very satisfied with my work even if they are aware that nothing is certain and that the need for self-study is ongoing. I hope I can continue with this passion. And I never regret even for one moment my choice. I should have done long before!
