​I (24m) make 600k but hate my business.

Title summarises it pretty well. I started this business in my last year of high school. It worked out fairly well and currently turns over about 1.8-2.8m per year.

When I first began it was all so exciting. Building the brand, creating a vision, and setting goals. I couldn’t be more fulfilled as we accomplished each one for the next 3-4 years. It was never about the money, I lived very frugally (70k pa) until a year or so ago.

Then the growth settled – as expected for the work we do in Australia. Along with it went my drive and love for the work. It got boring incredibly quickly. The ideal course of action would be to structure it and leave it to free me to start another one… the issue is caused by my naivety as a young business owner – I haven’t been able to effectively delegate sales and operation management and so I remain stuck in my position as the business in its current form requires me to be present and falls apart fairly rapidly in my absence even with 5 long time employees. This of course makes it very difficult to sell as an option.

Has anyone here made the transition. The metaphorical “getting off the tools”?
