The Sunday night scaries

It seems to happen about every Sunday night (and some weeknights) 
that I get the Sunday night scaries 
where I don't want to go back to work. 
I don't want to teach. I don't want to deal with clients.
I don't want to feel pressure. I don't want to fail. 

Sometimes my career feels like I'm walking on the ledge of a really tall cliff.

If I take one wrong step 
 make one wrong move 
I'll fall off 

and that's the end of that.


It feels so unstable.
And my job is almost solely reliant on me!
The amount of work I put into it directly affects the amount of revenue I get out.
Everything is relying on me!
Self-employed!

I'm my own boss, I'm my own secretary, PR, I'm my own accountant!
I run the books, I run the ads, I do the paper work, I do the schmoozing!


And I don't even know what I'm doing!


It's scary.
It's terrifying.


Sunday nights I just want to stay in bed and pretend it all isn't happening.

But you are doing a great job!!! And over time it will probably just become more and more natural and the scaries will go away. So keep going!!
