I begin this week’s podcast in addressing in more detail two issues: 1. Why do people who get money quickly sabotage their “success” and what can you do to be ready when your ship comes in. 2. Are there books in the “public domain” that you can make your own and sell for a profit? And the answer to that is a big resounding YES! Then the frequent but certainly never common questions continue: 1. I'm 27 and I'm looking to start my own photography business by taking photos of properties for realtors. But I'm feeling apprehensive still. I've figured out that I'm afraid of rejection and ultimately, failure. I know that these things are part of being an entrepreneur, but I'm still having trouble getting myself motivated to take the first step. 2. Good news, my "real" job only pays $1200 a month (full time) and my self employment pays $900 (20 hours a month). I'm pretty certain I can build it up more, but I'm scared to let go of the "safety net" of the J-O-B. I'm scared to let go of that fairly certain $1200 a month. Should I try to tough it out for another year or should I quit now and try to build up my own business. (working as an employee at another business makes my skin crawl!) 3. I'm a single mom of three with a lot on my plate and I hate my job. I am unable to meet the required expectations and suspect that I will be unemployed in the near future. I'd like to start an internet store geared to encourage women to take quiet time. I'm looking to carry a variety of books on family, finances, developing a relationship with God. Also I'd like to carry bath and body products, gourmet coffee and chocolates. What are your suggestions?
