Welcome to the Mattiverse

do I want to start a business?

Something that I keep mentioning lately is the fact that I'm feeling somewhat lost when it comes to my career.

I have a good 9-5 and while I am not desperate to get out, I do understand that this isn't going to be a job available over the long term, the nature of it means that eventually the wheels will come off and I'll be made redundant.

This has given me a bit of a scare in terms of where I go next and whether I want another 9-5 or whether I want to try something else.

I have done freelance work on the side of my current 9-5 and while that was okay, it wasn't the ideal thing that I wanted to work on, it was still time for money.

This means that my options are to try and create an online business that doesn't scale based on the amount of hours I'm trading or I create some kind of business in which I'm hiring people.

And both are scary.

I mentioned in a previous post about how I trust my gut and I do have an idea of what it's trying to tell me, but I am fighting a lot of fear around this decision.

I'm aware that this is likely an opportunity that I'm going to be unable to get again, but that doesn't stop me from being terrified of actually jumping.
