Losing my mind but the pay is great

Losing my mind but the pay is great

1. I've read lots of selling books and do my best at selling, but I'm just not good at it. Plus I've read one should focus their time on their strengths, and not their weaknesses. Do you have any suggestions or thoughts on hiring a commission based salesperson?

2. I am currently starting my bath and body business from home. I still work my 9-5 job but find myself dreading to go to work every morning because I am bored and burned out and when I am there I easily lose focus because I know there is something else I am passionate about. I am not at the point where I can quit. Are there any legitimate work-at-home businesses that I can do until my business takes off?

3. I currently am earning low six figures in a job I can't stand. I have a poor attitude and dread coming to work for my entire one hour commute and I don't think I do a God-pleasing job while I am at work. I am sick of working for someone and dream of having my own business. I have looked into becoming a Certified Financial Planner. The biggest problem is the salary reduction I would incur. That scares my wife half to death. We have no debt other than the house, thanks to Dave Ramsey. There is a lot of security in the place I work, but I am close to losing my mind.

4. I just finished college last month with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Finance. I am a 26 year old single and currently live with my parents. My boss has been very good to me and has paid my tuition expenses while going to school. He has also offered to pay for my tuition if I want to get a Master's Degree. I feel like I need to be loyal to my boss and keep working for him. I really enjoy my job but, I only make £7/hour! I feel like I could very easily be making much more somewhere else. My question is should I feel loyal to my boss and keep working for him despite making only $9/hour?

5. In my MBA program, the term "social entrepreneurship" comes up frequently. By adding term "social" to the term "entrepreneurship," aren't we subtly implying that entrepreneurship--at its core--lacks social responsibility?
