It's tough to convince yourself to take that leap--it's simple to say that you won't know until you try it, but making that career change or selling that hobby as a product can make your life a lot harder [financially]. <abbr><em>Ophthosurgerys last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Ophthosurgerycom/~3/2vVHg4Xc5so/" rel="nofollow">E. coli will get the last laugh</a></abbr></em> I absolutely agree.

I'm a wallflower. Self promotion is a skillset that I've had difficulty with my entire adult life. I've gotten much better at in the past few years by re-training my brain to separate the business side of what I do from the creative. Creative is one facet (albeit large) of my company but it is the other stuff that also keeps me in business, ie client relationships, product/service development, bookkeeping & accounting. I'm going to a networking event this evening with a singular goal: to inquire with other business owners about their marketing plans for the next six months. I find that if I have a goal it keeps me focused so the networking event doesn't turn into just another "meet and greet". I’ll admit it…. I’m a wallflower.

I really can't do it (I wish I could but I am on the rocks right now financially-speaking). If I get somewhere with this latest contact, then I will definitely be buying some private tuition with Naomi. <abbr><em>Joely Blacks last blog post..<a href="http://isabeljoelyblack.wordpress.com/2009/02/09/my-love-affair-with-fear/" rel="nofollow">My love affair with fear</a></abbr></em> Great post!

"Learning how to sell your stuff" is a great challenge. For me it is hard because my work has festered for so long in my brain that I've lost perspective!
