A new project is always a little scary in spots. Haven't you ever gotten a great idea, acted on it, and then wondered what the heck you were thinking? Even before anything bad happened?
So it is some days with freelancing. Several things have helped me power through the mental brownouts. I have done some reading, which always gets the juices going. Not only have I read about freelancing, contracts, getting assignments, and managing the books, but I have taken the time to be in touch with my personal center as well. I don't know why I need to be reminded that I am more than my thoughts, but I always feel better when I step back and look at the big big picture.
So I'm still looking for opportunities that don't require 2 years experience and job titles I don't have. It's all good. I'll be meeting people soon. I have my business cards ready, I'm learning the program I'll use for invoices, and the sun is still coming up in the morning on my warm bed.
What was one way you powered through the scary days?
