I have been working all day today on my latest endeavour.

Now, there are lots of things I love, and am passionate about - and one of those things is photography. Not to mention photographic art - my Photoshop and me have spent many evenings together… ahem…

So, while looking into my options to build an online business, it suddenly occurred to me - I have all these photos, and art, sitting on my hard-drive. Things I have created for my own pleasure in the creative process. Now, I love it, and others have complemented me on my photography before (see a few examples over at Sustainable Suburbia - no, not the yoghurt…) but I guess I suffer from that lack of self-confidence so many of us share… after all, who’d really be interested in my stuff? There’s so much out there…

But wait. That’s the old, shy, giver-upper me talking. I have grown significantly as a person over the last year and a half of my life, after some pretty big life changes last New Year. And if there’s one thing I’ve decided, it’s that I’m not going to second-guess myself into paralysis and let that keep me from doing what I want to do in my life.

That’s a big part of why I’m working towards this whole online-business thing, even though people in my life have said to me “you know no-one makes any money on-line, right”? Well, I’ve seen enough that I know that’s rubbish… and I intend to prove that statement wrong.

So, I’m working on it - but I want it to be right before I ‘launch’ it to the world. It’ll probably take me a few weeks before I’ve got all prepared and ready to go - but I’ll announce it here when I do!

Wish me luck :)
