True courage involves acknowledging your fear and moving ahead anyway.<BR/><BR/>If you continue to persevere, you will succeed. The important thing is that you didn't let the fear paralyze you. For some people that 'meltdown' would have marked the end. They would have given up right there. But you worked through it and that is impressive! Your kids will have an excellent role model!Karyn Beachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00262306731946580388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-244446575592744719.post-51298420069456219802008-07-17T13:38:00.000-04:002008-07-17T13:38:00.000-04:00Karyn,This blog of fear is so true.

I knew I was going to be laid off and was excited so I could pursue my business more full-time instead of part-time. <BR/><BR/>Well the very next day I had a melt down. Because I feared the unknown. How do you go from having a stable income to some or no income at all. And that frightened me because I have kids, which means cobra is too costly for me to purchase. <BR/><BR/>So, I begin praying and then putting all my business needs and goals into prospective. I began my business last year and I wrote a book that was self-published in April 2008. I began seeking more speaking engagements and avenues for book signings to get my book out here to the marketing niche I prefer. <BR/><BR/>Although, its only been a couple of weeks since my lay off I am driven and determined to make my business work for me. And to be honest. I do not want to work for no one but myself, because I love the autonomy. <BR/><BR/>I always heard if you want to become successful in your own business you must put 100% effort into and not 30, 40, or 50 ONLY 100 if you want to see great results. <BR/><BR/>Sincerely,<BR/><BR/>M.A.Moorerbelieveinyou08https://www.blogger.com/profile/16561766340892961109noreply@blogger.com
