Where I am and how I approach business


blog banner where I am now

So here I am, typing for this blog in what seems like forever.

girl blogging writing spiritual As you can tell if you follow this blog closely is that I stopped blogging regularly. There are many reasons for that. It just comes to a point where you have to shift and change with your moods, body, intuition and new interests. Not to say that I stopped blogging because it got boring, I will never get tired of blogging, but I was dying to get from under this self imposed way of business.

I am going to admit, as much as I love business, the creative side of it all, that is the only thing I love about business. I hate the numbers, the endless marketing methods to get followers (though I feel I can be good at marketing when I listen to my intuition), the adhering to a target market, trying to make people be interested in your stuff, trying to attract fans, likes and pretty much anything that is not about creating freely and sharing it with like minded people.

rage face nothing worksI honestly feel like in the years I've wanted my own business, I've been brain washed in what a business is suppose to be. I tried countless ways to be that big brand and great expert in the field that I hear I need to be in countless articles and books. But god damn, when does it end? When do I stop trying and just start being. Does it take so much just to be successful, or I'm missing something important? I get that it takes effort to do something great but I am not interested in selling my soul for this hobby either. I like things easy, effortless and fun. I'll admit a lot of my path in FYIC has been more like squeezing blood out of a daisy than effortless fun.

So in attempt to come out of the same routine I stopped doing the blogs every week to try something different and more flexible. Then I got into the videos (which I will stay I have some success in surprisingly) and the blogs pretty much stopped. Five months later more and more things became apparent in my way of "business". Everything is more in a "trying to be successful" than just "letting myself be successful" due to the countless rules I always thought I needed to listen too. Even when I knew this was just a hobby, I still struggled with these internal rules I thought I needed to follow to be successful which HAVEN'T really worked since the very beginning.

So why do I still follow them? Why do I still care? Why can't I let myself be myself in this endeavor and let everything else work itself out?

I care about succeeding and being the best I know I can be, but I am simply not aligned to what I really want to do with FYIC and I always knew that. This morning I found out exactly what was wrong with me in this path and why I always seem to be under the radar as far as success goes.

"I felt afraid of having fun in my own business/life work, follow your inner child readings, and anything that I would own because people would not take me seriously. I feel that people would see the way I do things and say "that is not a real business" and not validate me as a real business, thus people will never buy from me, or I will stay small. I felt that fear of going out of the box, being really out there and showing people who's boss, who I am and how I do things. I feel that people won't respond well and my businesses will flop. I always felt that I had to do certain things to be considered a real business or to be taken seriously. However, I feel that those are the very reasons why I am not achieving the great success in business that I am seeking."

Simply and beautifully put by my early morning self. I'm simply cutting myself off from the greatness that IS ME by following the methods I thought would work for me.

Going by the books doesn't work....

Doing what others say doesn't work...

Giving a damn about what others think doesn't work...

Not being myself fully doesn't work...

None of that crap works and yet I've been trying to switch it up since the beginning, only to face the same limitations and beliefs that is still keeping me in place. I'm not ungrateful towards my path, just annoyed that I kept this mindset for this long. But I know what I want and what I'm passionate about.

Talking about my path in life...

Inspiring people...

Encouraging people to follow their dreams...

Being myself, being hard and soft, hot and cold, sweet and savory, compassionate yet cynical...

Being creative...

Loving what I do...

Not taking life seriously, including spirituality...

And so much more...

I know that works because it's an effortless process that I don't have to think hard about. Or be concerned if I'm "doing it right" because of the countless ways I thought I needed to be. That and I have a positive feeling in myself that dictates exactly how things will go. Where anything else only attracts the lack of what I'm really looking for. A good time, excitement and people to share my experiences with.

So that's just one of the things that I've been dealing with in the last 5 months. Now I'm right in the middle of a HUGE transitional period in my life. Changing everything over into a new way including the way I approach this hobby. I hope you guys enjoy and get a lot out of these experiences that I will share with you all!

I missed you guys, this blog and I'm glad to be back on track with what I REALLY want.
