Was A Rough Month
-I’m very happy I did not set goals for myself in October. Would have just been another failure to beat myself up with. I had to put my focus on other matters. I didn’t have the time or energy to put in doing more than I did. I tried to write a few posts, but most of them were just about how overwhelmed I am. My income was not at all what I had hoped for and unfortunately, I don’t believe I will be able to keep doing my part time job any longer. I can still do the easy stuff, but I was pushing myself to get through and I’m going to be absolutely no good to my family if I push too far. I’m told that my latest problem is in-operable, so no easy fix. Money, even if it’s to pay the bills, just isn’t worth it. I’m trying to figure something else out. October wasn’t that great, but it could have been worse and now it is past me and November ain’t over yet. October may have not been a good month, but I do hope that something good will become of it and the actions I have decided to take.
I’m beginning to feel more confident I can get something going that I can integrate it with Notions and Needs. If there is one thing I know, it’s low income living. I know a bargain when I see one and I know the difference between a deal and cheap. I have very good taste when it comes to basic quality and I’m pretty sure I can build on that. I’m actually finding some resources here and there, which is no easy task. Finding products that are not already flooding the online shopping sites is no easy task. It’s unfortunately going to take capitol. Something I simply do not have, so it will take me a while to start small and grow into something bigger. I won’t ever use drop shippers or sell a product I have not inspected myself.
Monthly Goals – November
I am setting goals for myself, because in order to get anywhere, I need to make sure things continue in a forward motion. I knew in October that goals can change quickly depending on need. I believe I’m stepping in the right direction. I’ve got this, feeling pretty good about my final decision. I’ll be able to create posts that have products I have, not only to use as the products they were intended for, but for other useful purposes. I use a lot of things that aren’t really meant for what I use them for.
Nothing is going to happen over night. I’m prepared and understand things will go slow, but they will go. I haven’t been able to write the posts I’ve been wanting to write and that has been leading to my frustrations. I’ve written several other posts that I’m so happy I have enough sense not to publish them until I sleep on it or take a fresh look when I’m not emotionally involved in the subject matter. Seeing as though my thoughts have been mostly on emotions as of late, I’ve decided to do my first series of posts and also squeeze a few others in there as well. Each week day, until the end of the month I will have a short post about a word that drives emotions. Words are often defined by how one interprets them personally, these will be examples of how personally feel about them. Just another point of view to consider all in good fun. The posts will be found under Blog – Recent Posts, as well as my Emotional Tolls page. Nothing fancy or with photos, just a word and what my views are about it.
I will be opening my store in November, I have to take that step, so keep your eyes pealed for New Stuff and Such. My next post will have a little more info about where I’m heading…..Oh, by the way, lately I have had pretty steady numbers of viewers, “Thanks for being one”.
