Today I committed to an ad in a local parenting magazine. The cost per month for my ad placement is more than my car payment. It's scary for me to take on that responsibility. I'm starting to think that I should have done this a few years ago though.
As much as I am a creature of habit, I am a firm believer that sometimes it's important to move outside of your comfort zone. Even though it can be scary it can be a wonderful way to grow and to learn things about yourself.
I got lazy. Years ago I turned all of my booking and scheduling over to a company. It was great because it made my life easier. But in essence I was putting all my eggs in one basket. I got screwed. Then I turned all my booking over to another company. That was the lazy part. I didn't want the responsibility of dealing with clients, of booking everything, of running a business. I just wanted to do my gigs.
The second time around instead of turning everything over to the second company, I should have done what I am doing now. So yes it's scary for me. My stomach has been tied in knots. But I see possibilities! I see potential! And I can do whatever I want. (I hope I feel this way a year from now!)
