Wow. I’ve been thinking about writing this story for over 3 years. *shrug* I dunno, that seems like a long time to NOT be doing something. The funny thing is, I thought it was a novel idea that started this past March when I presented “Building Biz Momentum” at the White Box Club New Ventures in Ridgedale, MN. And I can tell you that I am NOT presently having the thought “Gee, I’m glad I waited on that project!”
So today I dusted off the ‘ol blog which entailed deleting over 600 spam comments that consisted of thinly-veiled advertisements for Cialis, every porn under the sun, and blog optimization services. I updated all of my plugins and crossed my fingers that this thing would still work.
I even had the great fortune of buying back www.weathervanecreamery.com for a mere $11.99. Previously it was being held by some web squatter for the longest time. I take it as a sign.
Speaking of signs, did you know that this is the Year of the Earth Pig? Well, you do now! I found out by my “feng shui lady”, Kim Julen of Finding Your Fiji. And I swear that she said that, according to feng shui, it is a good year to publish something. And if it wasn’t her, I either made that up at some point or saw it somewhere else. That shows you how serious I am about my horoscope. In any case, that means that I started truly re-thinking about this project in January, not in March. That’s a lot of thinking and not doing. Ugh.
Ok, so the procrastination bit is boring me now.
On June 8th, 2014, I began my public WeatherVane Creamery farewell. This is what stands out to me: “…it means facing the feelings of shame, fear, and failure.”
And then on June 15th I completed with ” That’s all I know for now. And it starts right here.”
So that’s where I’ll start.
