Hello! It has been a long time since I last wrote. Here is a brief summary of how I am doing right now. Have a cup of coffee or tea and let’s get ready for something new!
Lately, life has been pretty exciting and turbulent. Sometimes you wake up and feel like you’re in a movie. Right now, that’s exactly how I feel. From doing daily chores to achieving goals, everything has been very exciting. But enough of the blah blah, when last you saw me I said something like: “And guess what? I’ve decided to start my business! This makes me nervous and excited!”
The decision to start a business was not spontaneous, but well thought out, least I thought so. I didn’t make it while binge watching TV. That’s a badidea ! I’d been thinking long and hard about what it would be like to create something completely new. What’s my most important reason for doing something? Besides the excitement of being self-employed, it was important to discover my own path to success (and maybe make some extra income).
I’d already learned a lot. It almost felt overwhelming, but in a positive way! I learn quickly: first, boring tax regulations, then I feel like a creative genius at marketing strategies. It’s surprising how much fun it can be to work with spreadsheets. It was just a joke, kind of, I’m weird like that.
It is now even more important to keep my blog up to date, since I am on this path now for some time, I have made plenty of mistakes. Writing helps me to control myself and is like therapy for me. There will be more stories about my experiences as an entrepreneur, tips I have received, and useful resources. Because sharing is caring! I would like to know what you think about all of this. So share a comment!
But let’s not pretend that only fantastic things exist here. There have been times when I was unsure. Is it possible that anyone is interested in what I have to offer? What happens if sales don’t improve? Stuff like that. Some questions are like unwanted visitors at a party you didn’t plan to attend.
Nevertheless, you see every failure as an opportunity rather than something else, and anything but a failure. Every time something goes wrong, I learn to become stronger. This wasn’t so important to me before I plunged into this project.
This is my plan for the future: I want to document the journey as an entrepreneur with all of you! Ever up, every down, the underbelly with all its worts. That sorta stuff. There will be regular updates on progress and problems. Also thoughts about what success means to me. Sometimes I’ll get annoyed that business is difficult and overwhelming for me.
In the end, I would like to thank everyone who has accompanied me so far, oh wait, no not really since it never really went anywhere! We are almost there, I promise! If anyone has tips or experiences to share as a partner or shop owner, please let me know! Your insights might mean the world to someone as they navigate their uncharted waters.
I’m currently working hard on my dreams and trying to keep a clear head despite the life stress and lots of coffee. To be honest, I wish there were many more interesting improvements to be made. Opening my business was exactly what I wanted – and much more.
See you soon! There will be more news from me soon, from my little corner of the universe!
