Sometimes when we are chasing our dream its so easy to get caught in the moment of wanting everything to be perfect before we are ready to launch.
This is typically how I have always behaved with anything that I have done in my life in the past.
Creating Star Social is the most exciting thing I have done in my life because I am now working on something that I am so passionate about, that really it is just fun.
What I found was that there was always a big to do list, and really always will be, so I could not wait for all the ducks to line up to be ready. I have learnt over the years, that the ducks never line up.
I had a potential client ready to go almost when I first started to put things into place, and I was holding off because I did not think I was ready and of course there was that element of self doubt.
What if I am no good at this?
The fear of failure can sometimes hold people back from doing the one thing that they are meant to be doing in life.
It was this cross road that I have found the hardest so far in my journey to get past, and I am not quite there yet, hence why I am writing this blog, because I want to share with you my journey and when I do get there, it will be good to have documented the journey and the struggle.
The past few weeks I have battled incredible self doubt and so many what ifs, when I should have just been focusing on all the things that I am good at and knowing that I know this stuff, and its such a niche market, that people need my services.
So what did I do, I went and did a live video on my personal timeline announcing the launch (all that being a rather soft launch - which is a good thing) of Star Social.
I had a voice message first thing the next morning from someone wanting to talk to me about my services and another girl at work suggest me to her friend who was looking for the same.
So I have launched?
What now?
Well today I am working on my price structure which has proven to be tricky.
I had price points in mind, but when working through it with my coach, she asked me to break down how much time each task would take - and it was a little longer then I had initially thought.
So that is where we are at today.
Price points will be decided today.
They will be sent out to my first 2 prospective clients and then its just full steam ahead from there.
I am going to put myself out there. I am going to speak to many business's to offer my services.
I am not going to be scared.
I will not have time for self doubt.
I can do this.
I will do this.
