Snowflakes and my laziness

As you all know yesterday I purchased a car for cash. I must admit it was a great experience and I do believe this is one of the things I plan to do for ever. However paying cash caused a setback for my debt free date which was highly disappointing. I personally would have chose to ride a bike to work or catch the bus had it been possible. Non the less it is what it is today and I am not sure what to do really. I have been working at the hair salon for 4 months now and some days are better than others.

However I have a lazy bone in my body that I just can't see to shake!! Im kinda good at making people think I do more than I really do but honestly im probably one of the laziest people you might come across in my opinion. The reason why I mention this is because I am at the point in my traing that I have the ability to take on clients. Ever since I did one of my friends hair people have been requesting my services which you would think is great!! I could probably make back the money I spent on the car if I really focused. But I DON'T WANT TO!! Just thinking about what its going to take to get that amount makes me sick to my stomach. So here are my options : If I start taking on a bunch of clients and marketing my business I could make the money but potentially burn myself out to the point of quitting when its over.

Or I could remain lackadaisical about it, continuing to do enough to keep my hours up but no more, and get out of debt a month later than I planned but still enjoy what I do.....

I really need help on this, what would you do? I personally am not a math nerd but if someone could break down how many clients at what cost, to figure out how to regain $1600 bucks I would do it. In otherwords I just can't see the forest beyond the trees without someone breaking it down for me. If it looks like it can be done in a months time I would go for it!! But I don't know what it would take or if its possible....

le sigh..
