Whats going down?

Well readers, it has been a good while. This site has been an ongoing process, from coming up with a name/brand to paying for logo design to implementing everything else be it wordpress struggles or learning about permalinks and seo or struggling with server side tech.
I have gotten a basic skeleton for what is now LifeStartUp completed. Thank goodness! However alas, A funny thing happened after “going live” with the site. In my pursuit to try and add content and functionality I have spent too long researchingand drafting and redrafting in the pursuit to have everything just perfect and thus this has led to halted growth both with this website and with me (the founder) personally.
I had gotten stuck in the “planning phase” and have been quite comfortable putting off writing copy and doing the marketing and implementation by thinking it was for the best to wait for the perfect results in each respective area. I mean how can I write for a website about personal and professional growth if I am having struggles with each of these things. Well after revisiting some great books (think Napoleon hill and Stephen covey) I have realized that I must push out of my comfort zone and ACT.
To many to often fail to grow because they get stuck in a phase of waiting and justifying putting things off until “the right time” Well in my case I think my waiting had to possibly do with a sort of fear. A fear that not doing things perfectly could see me have some setbacks, but isn’t the biggest setback to make be not making ANY progress at all.
There are many different kinds of fear and fear of failure is a most predominant one. The thing that cures this type of fear is ACTION. Action cures fear and produces results. Setbacks are a great result in that they are a solid and valuable learning experience. By learning first hand what does not produce desirable results to an action or actions we can correct and become one step closer to our dreams and goals. So here is my update. I was holding out for the perfect j-o-b and my only source of revenue was my internet ventures. By delaying some marketing and internet actions I have had no extra money to invest in LifeStartUp or myself.
So while hoping for a certain job I was only maintaining and not growing. My action, I have accepted a position that has limited career growth but that has produced a much needed additional revenue source. If my perfect job opens up then great, but until then I will be able to reinvest some additional funds from my new salary. I have also decided to just do the work without worrying about perfection and watch LifeStartUp grow through my mistakes as well as my success.
SO- I am implementing some great things around here besides regular content and updates. I have been very fortunate to have been approved to interview several successful individuals. These people have defied the odds and are living proof that you can grow in amazing ways through action and setbacks. One of the individuals has a product in several retail chains and is fast becoming a player in cold and flu prevention. Another is a personal friend who has went from penniless to owning a franchise in less than 4 years and is only in his mid 20’s. All of the interviews/Talks will be housed in a new section here I will call the success lab. Plenty more in the works also. So please, wish me well as I grow this site and learn from my mistakes. As always I look forward to all Questions, comments suggestions and any and everything else.

Thank you for your continued support.
