First Day of the Rest of My Life
So finally did it! I quit my 40 hour per week “corporate” job to put my full energy into my own company. I decided about 10 months ago that I what I really wanted to be doing was designing custom jewelry for my own clients. I thought I could start doing it on the side of my other job. My goal was originally to have enough clients to be able to support myself by the beginning of June, that didn’t happen. I quickly realized that working 40 hours per week, exercising for an hour every day, and keeping my house considering that I like to sleep 9 hours at night left very little time to really make a go of my own business.
As of last Monday, I am self-employed! This comes with great responsibility. For example. I am currently looking for health insurance that will allow me to keep my plan to start a family in the near-ish future. I am also learning how hard it is to stay focused on work with all of the distractions at home. So far I have actually managed to stay on task but it hasn’t been easy since I love to cook and watch tv and play computer games and anything that I’m not supposed to do while I am supposed to be working.
So wish me luck with my endeavor and stay tuned for more on my own journey with my business, lots of jewelry designs, and advice on what consumers should know before they go into a jewelry store or look online for jewelry. If you or anyone you know is looking for a piece of truly unique jewelry, please keep me in mind!
