What to Do With the Worm at the Bottom of the Tequila Bottle?
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010
Sometimes being self-employed sucks.
You spend every waking hour (and some sleeping ones, too) working on your precious business – it’s your baby, your lover, your ever so slightly co-dependent best friend.
You spend so much time and energy on it that your real baby, lover, and best friend complain that there is nothing left for them.
But you can’t help it – you are obsessed. You are determined to share what you got with the world.
And sometimes people love what you’ve got, love you, and shower you with roses and orders and blog comments and 83% organic dark chocolate.
And sometimes? Sometimes, not so much.
Sometimes it’s dead quiet out there and you feel a tad exposed. You troll Twitter and everyone’s tweets are so peppy, all about how great their businesses are doing, you start to feel a tad bad. The story line, “What was I thinking?” starts sucking you in.
