Doing things that scare us.

I have been doing a lot of things that scare me lately.
It started last year when due to poor health I left teaching.
This action removed any income for my family.
This terrified me.
We then decided to start a business with my daughter Sarah.
My husband and I have decided to use our savings for the future, for now, to create a new future.
This is also scary as we are very new to business.
This year I have also retrained as a dog groomer.
Again this stretched my boundaries, but in a good way.
This year I have started a face book page and a blog for the business, both which I thought was scary to start with but I have managed in my own way.
I have gone through a marketing process that scared me but I came out the other side much stronger.
I have called retailer's asking if they would like to range our products.
This scares me but I do it anyway.
The year has been like a rollercoaster I never know what I will be required to do next and how deep I will have to stretch to complete the task.
I am currently applying for a mentor from Business Mentor's NZ so I can manage the process I am in, as I would like to feel calm and confident for a while.
