A couple of days ago I was talking with a friend about how my Etsy shop was coming along. I was going on and on and on about how nervous I was and that I didn't want to make mistakes and didn't feel prepared and had a lot of fear and how the end of the month was coming up faster than I was ready for and how much I still didn't know and wasn't sure about and blah blah blah blah blah.
She patiently listened to me and then asked, "Is it the end of the month or the end of the world?"
That made me laugh at first, but then I started thinking about how I must have sounded to her. To me, having lots of anxiety about things is perfectly normal. That's just how I've been most of my life. But I can see how she must have thought all that worrying was excessive. And she's right.
I just need to go ahead and take that leap of faith and begin.
So that's what I'll do.
By the end of the month.
That is pretty funny. Good for her for bringing up the difference. I have no doubt you'll do great in your shop!
ReplyDeleteIt IS scary! I'm trying to figure out what I want to do with blogging, hopefully one day turn it into a business but who knows? You'll do great!
ReplyDeletePerspective, indeed.
ReplyDeleteI tend to be a bit of a worrier, myself.
Best of luck to you!
