I have been talking to my family about starting up my own business for awhile.  And everyone has been very supportive of this venture.  They are even being very adamant that this would be good for me and the rest of the family.  I have done my research,my budgets,and etc.  Now that I am ready to start my inventory I am starting to get cold feet.  I have wanted this for so long so that I can bring in more income and be able to be home for my boys.  But now that it is so close to being realized I think I am scared of failure.  I don't want people to say well like a lot of other things she has tried this is just another thing she can't complete successfully.  I know that it is going to be hard and i am definitely not going to be a millionaire but I know deep down I can do this and be good at it.  I guess I really need to just go for it and if I do fail at least I will know I tried very hard to make it a successful.  Thanks for listening!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have overcome so much in your life, I know that if you look at this business as something else to over come, you will be successful!!!

You can do it. I understand the getting cold feet... I have come so close to being published, but I always decide to 'wait'.... I know it's fear of not being "popular" or not getting a good review....

You can do it!!!  You are an amazing lady and you should have more confidence in yourself!!!!

Love ya lots!!!!
