Great update! I love having you as an example in my life, Victoria. <3

Brainstorming is a strength of mine. I love proofreading and giving feedback on things in general, which people generally find encouraging and helpful. I see your success and I know I could make it for myself, but clearly there are things in my way. I'm perfectionistic and it makes me feel squeamish about being paid by the hour. I have some catching up to do with you in terms of work ethic. I could read more about marketing and business too. Another issue is pickiness about what work I take on... but that might be a flimsy excuse, or something I'd easily outgrow or turn into an advantage if I just made the right tweak to my mindset.

You make me think. I try to keep asking myself how I'll finally get from A to B, because people like you show me it is possible. Thank you for sharing the realities of your journey; I so appreciate the truth. :)
