It’s July already. I can’t believe it. I feel like someone pressed the fast-forward button on life.
I want to enjoy summer, but really I’m already looking for to the end of it. Exciting things are coming up around the end of summer. My world and my family will be different by fall. But still I want to enjoy these summer days and not wish them away. But I am looking forward. I can’t help it.
Be present, be present. I remind myself daily.
I left my part-time job at the UofU 3 years ago this weekend to go full-time with Bellano Web Studio. I almost made it a full 36 months of solopreneuring. But damn, it’s hard work working for yourself. Wearing all the hats. Doing all the work. Promoting yourself (that one is the most exhausting). Saving for taxes. Doing your accounting. Building your network. I just wanted to make pretty Web sites. ๐ย I still want to make pretty Web sites.
I technically officially made it 35 months of full-time entrepreneurship. Back to 3 days a week at a J.O.B.ย So far I’m loving it. It’s nice to spend the whole day doing work that I enjoy and getting paid. And I’m not giving up Bellano by any means.
I’m a creative entrepreneur. With a safety net. Three days of steady pay and 3 days of hustle, dreamer, empire builder. One day of rest. I think it’s a good balance. For now.
How many lifetimes do you think we can fit into this one life we get here on earth?
Some of the chapters of my life feel so far way and different from right now that they seem like another lifetime.
Just how many layers are there to life? It constantly amazes me. The layers within myself amazes me.
Keep learning. Keep growing. Keep evolving. Keep peeling those onion layers. (“I have layers. I’m like an onion.” Shrek)
I love routine. I’m a planner. But I’m also a spontaneous, jump off that cliff without a net, follow your heart kind of girl.
Follow your bliss. Listen to your heart.
Change keeps things interesting.
I miss blogging. Let’s see if I can get back to it.
Happy July!
