Re-evaluating Stress: The Difference Between 9-5 Jobs and Entrepreneurship

Stress is good to endure when it's used to achieve personal goals, but it feels wrong and unnecessary when it's mostly for someone else's benefit.

This is why most people consider stress negative, because most people work in a 9-5 for someone else's financial gain while they only get a fixed salary regardless of the amount of extra effort they put in. 

In a 9-5 job, stress is intuitively a bad thing because it simply isn't worth it. 

This is another great reason to have your own business; this way, any stress and risk you assume comes with a proportionate amount of potential rewards.
