What I Don’t Miss About Being an Airline Pilot

by Justin Lukasavige on July 30, 2010

It’s 5am as I write this.  I’m no stranger to being up early.  In fact, a few years ago this would have been late for me.  I used to get out of bed around 2:45am when I had a career as an airline pilot.  I did that for seven years before becoming self-employed.  This is a picture of one of the planes I used to fly.

I remember the quietness in the mornings this early and kissing my girls on the cheek as I snuck out of the house, to return after they were back in bed for the night, a few days later.

Today, I’m headed to Charlotte, NC to meet some great friends.  We’re going to exchange some ideas to grow our businesses together.  I’ll be back home before dinner.

I don’t miss those days much.  Now, I’m in control.  It’s what happens when you decided to place the importance on what’s most significant to you in life.

What’s most significant to you?
