Hi Matt, becoming obsessed with blogging is a bit of a risk, especially if you are not earning as much as you expected. The trick is not to work longer but to work smarter, look for what is working and do more of that. Likewise if something you have given reasonable time to has not worked don’t be scared to change tactics and stop doing it to pursue more successful options. It sounds as though that is something you already understand however, and have done, so no problem there I think. Thanks for the comment.

I started my first business 10 years ago and I have been self employed or running a business of some kind ever since. Things changed quite a bit in how the web is used and I got left behind in the blogging and social media side of things on a business level. Mostly this was because my business was successful without it but now I have changed priorities and written a book I have had to catch up fast. This year has been a steep learning curve in regards to creating and running my blog and I still have a great deal to learn but it’s working and it’s fun. However I can get a bit obsessed with it and need to know when to leave it and go outside to get some fresh air!

Hi Rose

I would imagine that quite a lot of people follow this route i.e. learn the ropes and tricks of the trade working for someone else and then set up on their own. That’s the way of the world and it reduces the risk because you are not beginning from a standing start. Your paintings must be quite good as well though, you still need to have something people want, so well done.

I agree with Patrick that we do need to work for other to gain the value experienced for running our own business. I am doing this at the moment. I am working for one company for about 5 years now, my role is for SEO, gaining traffic, getting more sale to that company, when I think of something new, I test with the company’s work first, if it work, I then keep it in my record.
About 1 month ago, I start to sale my painting online following all knowledge on my record. It’s not a bad result considering 1 month of part time work.
I am expect to be able to run my work full time in the next 6 months. Wish me luck.

Never hurts to learn your trade in the safety of employment. All you need to do then is work out the best time to leave if you decide that is the right decision.

I agree, but at the same time, some people who take this on part-time with a vision to move it into full-time work often find themselves stuck. They keep waiting on the “I just need a little more money before I quit my job” scenario, but it never seems to come. I’ve been down this road more times than I would’ve liked, but here’s my thing to overcome this – stop spending your extra income and put it to the side. Save up at least 2 to 3 months of your monthly expenses and then quit your job (your business has to obviously be doing somewhat good though – I don’t suggest quitting without knowing exactly what you’re doing).

That’s the plan I’m working on right now, and I hope to make things happen. Wish me luck

There are always differences of opinion between parents and their children, and always will be.

I think you are right, a good time to start blogging is when you are at college, you will have your finger on the pulse for your generation at that time. But I also think that this should not be to the detriment of your education; which is probably what your parents are really worried about.

Its all about contingency from a business perspective, having a fall back position that can keep you in the game. But it’s also about education and your level of knowledge, always nice to be able to have a conversation about more than one subject.
