" I would not give yourself as much credit as you think you have,"
I WOULD!! If he's still doing 7/day plus and making a decent living at this then I give him all the kudos in the world - who else would you credit for it?? The following words bear repeating - outstanding advice for anyone about business attitude...
"Another factor might be that I treat those companies (and their personnel) who use my services as valued customers, and not as enemies. I do not threaten them with decapitation if they are a few days late in paying me. I politely decline offers that I am unwilling or unable to accept. I do not threaten to turn back an assignment if the package is a little bigger than anticipated, some faxbacks are now required or the documents are late, unless they substantially increase my fee. I am flexible and am well aware the sometimes "stuff" happens. I will accept a job where I might make a bit less than usual, so long as I can still generate what I deem to be a reasonable profit, all factors considered. "
