Is it just me?....The Dip.
Something I’ve been noticing about myself (and maybe you’ll relate): Almost every time I start something new, I feel excited at first. Ideas flow. Possibility feels alive. I can actually see where it can lead to. Then reality kicks in.The uncertainty. The “am I doing this right?” or "I dont know what I am doing." And suddenly I start thinking: Why was I ever excited about this? Was it just the idea of making money that pulled me in? Why does this feel heavier now? And usually, I back off and go towards something more familiar, easier, comfortable. This is frustrating. But... I am beginning to realize that it’s not that I lose interest or that its not the right thing, it’s that I am alone with this uncertainty. When there’s no feedback, no structure, no mirror… doubt fills the gap. I’m sharing this because I know many of us here are trying to turn a passion into something real, and the dip doesn’t mean you chose wrong. It often means you at the point of uncertainty and all you need is support and encouragement. All you need is some feedback and to keep experimenting in ways that give you confidence. I am curious: 👉 Have you noticed this pattern in yourself too? 👉 What is your go-to behavior when you reach the dip?
