Do you "Blog" or are you a "Blogger"?
There is a very important difference... I just happen to blog, among many other things I do, I am NOT a "Blogger" ... In my opinion ... You might be a "Blogger" if...
- You are Consistent; you make regular and timely posts (Me- I blog when the mood strikes, I have 6 posts still in draft form and 12 more ideas in my head that may or may not ever be posted... balance and consistency have eluded me all my life. And there is also that perfectionism thingy)
- You are Original; you formulate your own new and creative ideas & thoughts; sharing them for the benefit and thought stimulation of others (Me- I do enjoy writing my own stuff but I also collect other people's stuff to share {always crediting the source}... 'cause frankly sometimes others say what I want to say... only better!)
- You are Focused; you have one or two passions you specialize in. (Me- I am all over the map... as in my life... everything flows and melds together.)Not everyone can ... or should be a "Blogger" ... but everyone that chooses to can "Blog"...
Nope, I am not a "Blogger" ... but that is OK! :)
Success Strategies on Risk Taking: Women Ties (Guest)
If you need alittle inspiration to help you take some risks today or in the near future, take a few minutes to read today’s three success strategies. They might be exactly what you need to finally make the decision you’ve been wanting to make for awhile.
How Long Has it Been?
Sometimes the action that finally gets us to take risks and get off the mountain is stopping to realize how long we’ve been stuck at the top. Have you been thinking about a business decision for a week, a month, a year? The longer you’re frozen in indecision, the harder it gets to take action. If you’ve been contemplating a big change for more than three months, you may need extra support to take the plunge. Seek counsel from a business advisor, financial consultant, therapist, business coach or trusted colleague with whom you can discuss your apprehension and plans so you can either move forward or put the decision to rest.
How Well Are Others Things Going In Your Life?
Entrepreneurship takes a lot of mental energy, willpower and determination. As much as we want to separate our personal lives from our business lives, we can’t. They are intertwined. Personal situations, illnesses, loss, and change can take a toll on our mental outlook. Sometimes taking risks confidently means our personal lives are stable enough for us to be unsettled with new business developments. If you are going through a difficult or transient time in your personal life, taking a large business plunge right now might not be the time. Consider all factors – personal and business – before making any big decisions.
Do You Have Support Systems in Place?
If you feel you have been at the precipice of a decision for awhile and you feel your personal and business lives are stable enough then make sure you have support with your upcoming plans with a strong support system in place. Support systems could mean gaining extra financing, adding extra staff, renting more office space, moving to a better location, and seeking extra legal or accounting counsel. Get everything lined up so you are ready. As we glide down the mountain towards the finish line, we need to have all the resources and tools we need to sustain us.

The Begining...
Launching my own business; scared and excited at the same instant. This has just fallen into my lap; like I have been searching for something and it found me. I have a desire, passion, need almost to do something meaningful, not be buried away in a fabric box. This has taken on a life of it's own; like ready or not here we go; white knuckling all the way. Deep breath, hold on tight; This outta be GOOD!!!
