It's been just over a week since my last journal entry. I'd envisioned posting about mountaintop experiences nearly day in and day out, when this process began. I'd not been to Las Vegas yet, and still had no idea about how some of the assumptions I'd made about starting a business were going to come into play. After a pretty major (and surreal) victory last week, I'm trying to complete some changes within a project design, before focusing on the next significant milestone in my business. I can honestly see a future of doing what I love, what I'm built for, but it isn't always easy. I feel like I'm simply "puttering" along.
The devil is in the details. With each step of progress, it would appear new fears surface. Doubts about my expertise, lack of experience and unproven business ideas are coming out of the woodwork. I'm not at all surprised that many people end up stalling out in this stage because of analysis paralysis. "What if I'm not ready?" "What if I don't really have what it takes?" I've got to keep making the choice each day to take a step forward- even if it's a baby step. I'm sure that God wouldn't have let me walk this far into the process, if I didn't already have the right stuff, or weren't being set up to acquire it.
So what am I doing right now? I'm looking at other strategic steps in my education. I'm locking in the preliminary designs for a product we wish to bring to market in the near term. And, I'm going to incorporate our business officially in February. Once this step is complete, I'll begin to reveal a bit more of exactly what we're up to.
Good Night
