Thanksgiving occurred yesterday and it is during this time of year when Americans stop for a moment of reflection. What are you thankful for this year? For people who are able to make living sell soaps or other crafts, there is plenty to be thankful for.

First, there is the obvious: using your creativity as means to make money. There are fortunate few that are able to do what they love for a living. Second, is having total control over your health and schedule. Being your own boss means making your own hours which means you can make better personal decisions. If you want, you can have a healthy lunch at home, taking as much time as you need, rather than trying to wolf down a vending machine snack. Also, making your own hours means that you are able to make time with friends and friends, solidifying those relationships. While running an online craft business independently has its hassles, there is certainly a lot that one can appreciate from it. For more on thankfulness, click here:: The Gift of Self-Employment
