something I finally STOPPED procrastinating on!

I am a  WAHM (work-at-home mom).  For a long time, I have had two home businesses--one I was building slowly, and one that was my safety net, so to speak.  Well, # 1 has begun to take off, and #2 has not been as needed for awhile.  Plus, I didn't enjoy it anymore, and just began to feel like it was time to give it up.  But...you guessed it, I procrastinated.  For months.  One day in a Tools lesson, the question was posed, "What one thing would you do if you weren't afraid?"  My answer was instinctive and immediate--I would quit this second business.  I read the entire lesson about fear, about it being all in my head, and I KNEW what I should do.  But still, I put it off.  I hated the work, but I procrastinated anyway.

 

BUT, I am here to announce that I finally did it.  Two weeks ago, I gave notice, and tomorrow is my last day!  I still struggle with procrastination, but at least in this one thing I defeated the monster!   :)
