Is Entrepreneurship Stress normal? Does anyone else have a business and experience stress and overwhelms at the start phases, or am I alone? Making the jump to self-employment isn’t easy. It may appear to be an ideal situation from the outside, but it’s not a simple path, and leaving a steady income to chase your goals is not without its own set of challenges and trials.
Say goodbye to Stress and Negativity.
I’m currently going through the baby bumps that come with beginning my own company. But, I am confident that doing what I’m doing is the right choice in the end… since working for a government position is not how I’m going to find success and happiness in the present. We’ve all been taught that great benefits and pensions are the best way to achieve liberty, but at the, however, in my own experience, I’ve never felt more anxious as a day-job in a union. Everybody’s worried about layoffs, and by their very nature, a large company is full of political machinations.
I don’t want that kind of small-scale stress and negative thoughts. It’s just too short.
Get rid of anything that isn’t helping you in your daily life.
Early Lessons
Anyways, since I’ve been developing my website and online business in an effort to expand my audience and email list and learn more about marketing, master details of web development and maintain a semblance of a schedule for content creation, It is overwhelming, to be honest.
Another issue I have to deal with is the fact that I’ve fallen back into previous patterns of uncertainty, anxiety, and stress over financial matters. In the first month of the launch of a new website, there were a lot of unanticipated and unexpected administrative costs associated with the registration and hosting for the website set up and also legal and business expenses to get the company in line conjunction with the local government. Also, I learned a lot about creating a number of pages at the beginning for marketing in order to build and grow an email database.
The cost and the process are overwhelming. In hindsight, I think the initial stage is the toughest.
Marketing itself was a significant learning experience because I spent too much on clicks to build my mailing list. Learning from the experience, I’m considering switching to Facebook ads which are likely to be more profitable and efficient in terms of money since it’s far more specific.
Gotta Keep Learning
In the past, I took an online marketing class, and I think it’s about time to revisit the subject because there’s lots of great information regarding paid online advertising, and I’m sure I need to improve my skills in this field for me to increase the size of my business.
The next couple of months is the difference between my family and me as I’m determined to never go back to the day-to-day grind… However, the anxiety and uncertainty of managing a business and ensuring an improved life for my family and the question of whether I’m capable have been making me feel weighed down.
However, I know that I’m capable of being an excellent creator and writer, and I also know that I can tackle issues I’ve had in my own life.
So instead of spending my time dwelling on the many issues that come with setting up a business, it’s now time to put on my sleeves and take action.
I’m confident that I can accomplish this… I’ve never made it this far in my career… as well, I’ve tried numerous times to be a business owner… I’m feeling like I’m getting closer to realizing my dreams and goals, So it’s not the right time to quit now… I need to keep going.
