My dear husband really has a problem with me having a job or even a hobby that takes a lot of my attention. He is like a dependent child and it really makes me mad. Not only does he refrain from supporting my attempts to be successful, he always finds things wrong with what I'm doing.

I'm either burning too much gas, spending too much money, spending too much time or I'm obsessed....according to him.

When I was working online, I was "on the computer all the time". When I was gardening, I was "obsessed". When I worked for the newpaper, I was too involved. (I liked my job). Now that I'm selling Avon, I'm putting too many miles on the car and causing us to pay more to have our taxes done. duh!

I'm having a hard time shaking off his negative attitude all of the time. This time, however, I am determined that I will, but would like some ideas on how to continue on my path towards having a successful Avon business without allowing him deter me. I happen to be one of those women who tries to please her husband. How do I stop and please myself instead.....without feeling guilty?
