So, last night I posted an intro and as I was writing it up I felt this gnawing feeling like my plan or my road map was off course. I had the passion to get somewhere fantastic but I was on the wrong road. I remember reading in TMF you don't want to be the MLM participant, you want to own the whole damn company. Also, saturation does create odds. This statistic really put me off of my goal: to create a lifestyle website with an e-commerce store and pooled resources. The idea is there and so is the passion. But this morning it hit me...
I would be a guppy. I'd be a guppy swimming around with the other guppy's with this road map. I'd be swimming along with all of the other established women bloggers who are trying their best to coach, be insightful resources, collect inspiration, sell ethically sourced goods etc. It's been done and it keeps being done and while I could stand to make $20,000 a week because I love to write and know this niche like the back of my hand, I could never make $20,000,000.
I wanted to join these fabulous ladies- but I realized, I want to RULE these fabulous ladies. I want to be an endless well of resources for them- I want to fill the need of the virtual resource for women who want life guidance, who want to give life guidance and the women who already do.
Back to the drawing board. This is much bigger than I was originally thinking and I'm stoked.
It's so weird how easy it is to minimize possibility- is it fear of failure, responsibility or just flat our fear of success? Crazy.
