The snow is piled high outside which made today the perfect day to move forward with my husband and mine plans to start businesses. Today we bought domain names for our future websites which is an exciting step.
As I have mentioned previously, I have wanted to start my own business for a long time. The thing that I have always lacked is patience. Unless by chance my power ball picks pull me through, it is unlikely that I will be able to quit my job anytime soon. It is frustrating when you know what you want and know that it is just going to take time and there is nothing I can really do about that except keep moving. That has been my stumbling block in the past. I would focus so much on the time line that I would grow impatient and give up.
This time I am determined to do things differently. As I was going through the process of purchasing our domain names, there were lots of opportunities to upgrade, add additional things such as a .net and .org versions of the sites. As I excitedly clicked yes the $$ signs kept mounting up until I was staring at over $100 in fees. There would have been a time when I would have tried to make it work with that amount thinking that was the only way I was going to get what I wanted quickly, but this time I thought a little more logically and thought about what I wanted to accomplish just for now. I also consulted with my husband who is a wonderful partner and keeps me grounded. What I wanted for today was to get the .com domain names registered and that is what I did. I also utilized promotional codes and reached the godaddy website through my ebates account so I saved some money along the way.
So for today I am moving forward or shall I say we are moving forward...and doing it in a way that won't leave us broke or feeling pressured to move quicker than we are ready to do.
