Imagine a "realistic Utopia" where you are running your business perfectly. What does this look like? How many hours a week do you work? What is your work day like? Tell me where you would like to be in an ideal world.

Where would you like your business to be in 6 months? How many bookings? How many hours will you be working, etc?
