Parents' Sanity Clock
I often wish I would come up with a briliant, profit-exploding entrepreneurial idea. Surprisingly, I haven't. I have several projects in the pipeline, but I will keep these secret for now, to protect intellectual property rights and to avoid public humiliation. I have, however, recently come up with a new concept, called a "Parents' Sanity Clock". My youngest has inspired me to come up with this sanity-saving idea. It's simple: When there's a loud and repetitive "Mama" calling next to my bed at 5.30 am, I pretend it's 7am. And in the evenings, after all tasks have been done and to my horror it's already 11.30pm, and I'm only then ready to do what I actually wanted to do, I pretend it's only 8pm. This idea produces around zero profits, and has a huge price, which is even more sleep deprivation. But a bit of humor keeps one sane, right?
