Stressin :(

Ok, I've been working on Site Build It! now full-time for almost a week. I've been loving it but...

...today I'm feeling overwhelmed and disorganised - the very things the Action Guide tells you not to! So, I'm taking a bit of time out to write up this blog, listen to some cheery music and try chill a bit.

Why am I feeling overwhelmed? I think because I have got myself too excited by building the site up, the design, lots and lots of content ideas etc that I have strayed from the Action Guide Bible and ended up losing my way.

Also, my kids are due back soon - I know I haven't got a 'clean run' of time to give over to working. Same goes for the weekend; I have them for the next 2 weekends so no working :( Therefore, I feel 'time stressed'...I will have to get stuff 'done' so that I make best use of my time. But remember 'The Way of the Tortoise'!!! LOL

I have also had an 'emotional' setback (again) AND saw a competitor's site last night that really panicked me! Made me wonder why I'm bothering, her site was great, lots of ideas, good Alexa ranking - and she has obviously used Site Build It! too.

However, I tried to turn it around and use the 'always try see a positive' thing! Her site made me realise that my 'spin' on my site was not right - she is more into design, I am into best offers, supplies, discounts, downloads etc.

At first sight we seemed to be in competition, but actually, we may compliment each other very well and I may approach her for a link.

In addition, and another reason I've got myself all over the place today, is I realised that 'my' knowledge and so-called 'expertise' lies in the business side of the craft - I hadn't thought of this, but I can offer my own unique 'been there and done it' perspective, help others avoid my mistakes. This gave me an idea for my own product later down the line...my own eBook ;)

Ideas pouring out of me so fast I can't keep up!

My whole focus for this new venture is my girls...

I need to get back on my feet and bring in an income AND be at home to do the motherly stuff, in order to keep our lives on track. I'm just starting to get there with the house being organised (all socks in neat lines in drawers etc LOL) but I am getting panicky that this may NOT bring me financial winnings...

"the way of the tortoise"... take my time, persistence and patience is key, do not rush.
