That I could be successful in a business of my own is not a complete surprise to me. But the complete-and-total-letting-go-while-you-hold-on-for-dear-life that I have had to learn how to pull off on a daily basis has been.
I didn’t know it would be this hard.
I don’t know why I didn’t know. I think I should have known.

Some days self-employment sucks the big one.
Today is one of those days.
And because I know that my current trauma is only an illusion , I find this Lynn Anderson song from way back stuck in my head:
I beg your pardon,
I never promised you a rose garden.
I could sing you a tune or promise you the moon,
But if that’s what it takes to hold you,
I’d just as soon let you go, but there’s one thing I want you to know.
You better look before you leap, still waters run deep,
And there... Read Full Story

This actually happened recently to someone I know. She contacted me about adding something to her... Read Full Story
