Stop being a sheep!
You may have heard this phrase before. If you do what all the other people do, you are going to end up at the same place.
If you are someone that finds it important to do exactly the same things as other people do you want to look at the people you are wanting to be like.
Are those people in dept, spend their money on expensive goods they can't afford to make them look better and have a job you are trying to get out of?
STOP wanting to be like these people!
If you want to copy someone, then copy successful people, that can give you information you are looking for.
I would suggest you to do what you want. Listen to your body. What is your body telling you?
I remember when my uncle died suddenly of a virus at only 60 years old. That day made me realize how short life can be and what is the point of doing a job you hate and being around people you don't like? Life is too short to have these problems.
The day of my uncle`s funeral I quit my job and had 3 months time to look for another job. I have taken those 3 months to work on my website and make the online business work. I have got a temporary job as a nurse where I get paid hourly and am hoping to quit that all together and focus on my online business.
I have not made a first purchase yet but I am starting to get viewers and subscribers and truly believe I will make my first purchase at the end of this year.
Everybody I know thinks I am completely mad for quitting my job for something that hasn't earned me a dime so far. But my instinct together with the love of my uncle are telling me to go down this path and make something fantastic out of my life. I have also learned not to always listen to people.
A great quote to finnish off this post and hopefully lighten your day up:
“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life.”
- John Lennon

Follow your heart and don't worry about the naysayers.
Great quote by the way. Thanks for sharing.
What a great quote... Be Happy! That is the point. Everyone else missed the point and wanted to do and be someone else and everything else to do what? To be somewhat happy?
Creating your own path Cathy will bring you much happiness.
You are clever and brave.
Clever to recognize the message in your uncles passing and brave enough to put actions to thoughts.
Bravo!
Wishing you much success.
Lily 😊
Hey Cathy,Thank for sharing with us that great post. Keep up the good work. All the best to you on your journey.
Brave decision to quit your job and go all-in on your quest to get your business up and running. I admire your courage!
The very best of luck to you!
If you have experienced the worst of life, you come to a point where you don't care anymore.
Things can't get any worse! It is because of these horrible experiences that I have decided to fight for a better life because I know I deserve it.
It is either all in or all out and I have decided for the all in. Nothing can stop me!
I hope you will find your place online and start growing. I am looking forward to your progress!
We as a community at WA are in it together and if you ever need any help, you know where I am!
Have a great day!

Fantastic Catherine! I can see that you have the “failure is not an option” attitude. I just had a quick browse round your sites and I’m very impressed.
I can tell you are going places 😀
Follow your heart Catherine and you will do fine.
I remember my 3rd-grade teacher asked me to write a paper about what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote I wanted to be a retiree. She asked me why? I said my Dad retired and all he does is play golf.
I liked golf more than school.
