Sunday Thoughts Pt. 2

General thoughts on working for myself

Another Sunday evening, and more dread surrounding going back to work tomorrow. I am still day-dreaming about having the freedom to operate on my own schedule. I don't necessarily think that I want to do nothing, just that I want to have the freedom to make my own decisions with my time.

Lately I've been thinking about starting up a photography business. I believe I am competent enough, but I certainly have fears about the quality of my work, and whether my clients would be happy with what I produce.

I'm not entirely sure if that fear goes away as you achieve mastery in a subject, but I guess the only way to truly find that out for yourself is to take a leap of faith and start doing that thing you're scared of doing.

How else will you find out if you can do it or not?

What I want to talk about on this blog

As a side note, I've been thinking a lot about what I want to talk about on this blog. I really like talking about life experiences, because I think it provides value to those reading. I want to discuss my experiences, and the thought process I went through to make big life decisions. Additionally, I want to start discussing men's mental health. Although everyone will have their own challenges, I think it would helpful to share my own experiences in the hopes that others can relate, and in turn, feel more connected. Aside from that, I want to discuss personal finance and investing, subjects I find extremely interesting (although others may not find it as entertaining).

Enjoy your sunday evening!
