Hullo, and welcome. Grab a snack and get comfortable. Actually, you don’t need a snack this usually is pretty short and sometimes sweet. Lol! So something funny happened to me this past week. I had an idea I wanted to try. Actually, my daily 3-minute journal brought it up to my attention. Usually, there’s a section that asks me what new ideas I’d like to try for the day and then I write whatever crazy idea is on my mind at the time. Most of the time I don’t I don’t know why but I just leave it blank. Maybe I’m not as adventurers as I thought!
So on this one particular day I come up with a brilliant idea, well it’s not that brilliant or new it just involves me cold DM’ing random people on Twitter. Mainly asking for their business in relation to my gigs on Fiverr. I don’t know what it was but I didn’t quite get around to doing it which was really weird. I mean I have never had an idea so clear in my mind and its execution so simple. Yet I never actually followed through. You know what, I actually went and did the opposite of what I was meant to do. Nothing!
Which got me thinking, was that the fear of success? I was so sure it would work or at least elicit a response or two. Because I can tell you for sure it wasn’t the fear of failure, believe me, I know what that feels and looks like. Did I subconsciously self-sabotage? I really can’t explain my state of mind at the time. Anyway, that happened!
This brings us to today. Being that I never took the leap to ask for business from prospective clients, you can guess how much I made. Yeap, nadda! I haven’t made much headway with Fiverr despite steadily getting impressions. I’ve been keeping up with the uploads on Redbubble but still no sales. And no favorites! How weird is that?
By the way, the guy that inboxed me on LinkedIn about a job was a hoax. I don’t get why someone would do that. Anyways I reactivated my Upwork profile to try and drum up some business. I sent like 5 proposals but none of them have gotten back to me. I’m still patient and of course, I’ll keep you posted.
