I am close to the start of my business. I do have an issue though.
Every time I get close to doing something like this I hesitate and usually turn tail and run. Why? Because of the voice of my childhood. The voice tells me I am not smart enough or talented enough to pull it off. It is like a huge road block. Never mind that most times the voice is wrong. I have tackled numerous things and conquered them, with the Lord's help. The voice still persists. The same voice that told me my essay for english that scored an A+++ from a very difficult to impress teacher was eh. Yeah that voice. The one that over the years of my teenhood convinced me I could not do anything.The one that tried to convince me my Beloved was going to leave me... yeah that one. BTW he never did try to leave and here we are 27 years later, happier than we ever have been!
It is in my head now. Even though I have a good friend who is willing to walk me through the path and she has succeeded beyond even her own imagining. Still I hesitate. Do I do as I have always done... go so far then box up the dream and store it away for another time or keep it as a dream? This time do I just plow ahead and see what happens? I want to plow ahead. I want to try and see.
I plan to begin this week working for my dream. I am seriously decluttering the sewing room. I have a huge pile of misc. for free cycle on the porch now, posted and ready for pick up.
My sewing machine has a nice clean sewing table. Now just to find my auto bobbin winder...
My dining table is nearly cleared for any ironing and cutting I need to do.
I have a plan. I have the will. I have the brains. I can develop the skills since I love sewing anyway. This year my business begins.
Look out world, here comes... me!
I will be beginning a new blog as soon as my idea takes shape, it will be the business blog, this will remain as a fun chatty blog. The business already has a face book page. I have been told I should join twitter too... eek!
Wanna come along?
hugs y'all!
You go, Dear One! You absolutely can do this! You have conquered more than one obstacle in your lifetime, and that voice in your head? Well, it's just Satan spewing nonsense. Kick him to the curb and persevere with God by your side, my friend!
