Nathan, firstly congratulations - it looks like you have definitely made a successful transition from company employment to self-employment. It's also great to see the variety of income streams that you have.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your book and also learn a great deal from your blog, especially as you are so transparent with your failures and successes.

It would be great to hear a little more about how your time management differed in both roles. Are you working less, the same or more hours now? Also it would be good if you could divulge a little more on how the networking you've done has affected your success (if that's possible to describe or even measure!). Thanks!

Pretty similar hours (40-50 a week), I just get to pick what I work on now.

I think that this is the most impressive fact so far. Being successful on your own as well as maintaining a good work/life balance (especially with a family) is an incredible feat. Way to go.
