Embracing Fear: A Journey of Side Businesses and Personal Growth

I've begun a journey that truly worries me yet has the ability to change my life.

You would think that having a kid will change your life, but that is untrue.

I worry about beginning new side companies and the likelihood of failure. Some of my fantastic side projects and adventures include: To promote my favorite items and write for my mother's blog, I have created an Amazon storefront. I also operate a balloon arch company that I use to make balloon arches for birthday celebrations and other special occasions. I've offered my Fiverr ad in addition to helping businesses create engaging content for their websites.

Some would query why. I respond, "Why not?" Everyone complains that life is too short, but in fact, it is the situation. Life
is too brief to waste away in misery. Why not create something you can be proud of and enjoy because my husband and I cannot afford for me to stay home and not work? I want to make my children proud of all my effort and commitment. I don't want to say, "Well, this is it," and give up. Because I don't want to be miserable, I am unable to accomplish that. This causes enthusiasm and delight. Is everything sunshine and butterflies? Definitely not, no. I say this because I feel like I just waste time spinning my wheels with no results. Even so, I keep trying to keep going.

I have to put myself out there in order to maybe succeed, am I right? To be quite honest, I dread putting myself out there, yet here you are reading my blog post.

Before I ever started, this was a long, arduous trip that regularly made me cry. I am choosing to do this afraid; otherwise, I would never start this path. I am choosing to do this scared after significant research and many hours of podcasts and YouTube videos on the subject.
