They say busy people get things done. That if you desperately need something done, ask someone who is busy because they have the best multi-taking skills, and they are the most likely to get it done on a short timeline.
I suppose that's true, but I've never really seen myself that way. I'm always busy, but I'm also always busy procrastinating.
Over the last 3 weeks, I've had to change my attitude about the procrastinating.
You see, I've started my own business. Not from scratch, I've opted into the home-based business world, because they start you with a sort-of-business plan.
I signed on as a tupperware consultant mid-April. I had my launch April 30th, and I've been working my hindquarters off since then. Booking, learning, selling, entering, learning, following up.
I'm enjoying it a lot. I love tupperware, it's a quality product, so it's not hard to sell. And I'm good at sales. I won every weekly sales prize when I last worked in a clothing store. I didn't even try upselling, and I somehow managed to upsell all the time at the clothing store.
So now that I have a product I love? Flying off the figurative shelves.
But even better than the success I'm experiencing so far, is how much fun I'm having. As much as I'm an introvert, I have a bit of showbiz in my system, and I enjoy putting on the show. And I enjoy meeting new people, despite not enjoying being in large groups.
So I'm even more busy than usual. I have a yard to clean up, a house to finish organizing, a baby to conceive, an always on the run toddler to care for, and I'm also running an event for the medieval society this weekend. Which means Beaker needs a new fighting tunic, and I need to finish my norse stuff, and make sure Punkin's still fits....
Did I mention I'm also learning to quilt?
In the last 2 weeks, I've accrued 34 hours of TV on the PVR that I haven't watched - And I've been playing catch up for months already. I sometimes wonder, as I flip through the list of recorded programs, what I would really be missing if I canceled the subscription... Other than my Mike Rowe and David Boreanaz fix.
Anyhow, gotta run - I've got laundry to switch around and quilt squares to finish cutting and a eura dress and apron dress to make!
