Finger in the pot

Well, I am busy working on 15 different projects. Aprons, SIMILE, crawfish, black pots, putting out grease fires and cleaning up after them-you get the idea. Actually, I am exaggerating a little here. The grease fire was last week.

I have been researching Etsy and assembling an inventory. My hand has been in many a pot with crazy ideas and I have learned some interesting things about myself:
1) I don't always think the whole idea through. My initial thoughts pan out, but then momentum wanes. I have business plans but no marketing plans. Sarah pointed this out and has helped get that part ready.
2) I think about the money to earn on each little part rather than how much I want to make overall in a time period.
3) I wear all the hats in the business: accountant, designer, creator, shipper & handler, advertiser, motivator, etc.
4) I jump in before it is all thought out because I feel that I am going to miss out on some opportunity!

What does all this mean? It means that I am going slow and actually sleeping on some ideas before I gather materials and begin the project. Some of my projects are still being sorted out while others are in the middle of the game. When those projects come to fruition, you'll be the first to know!
