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?

I consider myself multi-passionate. What I thought that meant is that I have many passions. But I am realizing that anything I pursue that lights me up, it will lead to the same results. Because everything that I have "tried" in the past all have similar qualities. And the part where I end up quitting and changing to something else is always the same. That's been outreach. Today, I am actually "in it" at my day job. I have taken on this sales role and this exactly what I needed to learn and how I needed grow. As I do the work for this company, I realize, I can do this for my own business. And now, I want to go back to being a travel advisor. That's the last thing I put on the shelf because I thought I dont have what it takes and I thought it wasn't really me. But I can make it whatever I want to. I can design travel that aligns with my passion for sustainability and social responsibility. I can plan group trips and retreats. There will always be those points where we hit a wall and make a choice to turn around. But we can always go back. I'm rambling this morning! If you get what I am saying, let me know if you relate!
