Question for the day!!

Why do we spend so much time making decisions because we are too scared of the wrong choice, when in reality we don't know the answer till we do both?

My Story

If your on my blog you already know basic information about me.  It's pretty obvious that I have three kids and a home based business.  What you don't know is how I got here, so I wanted to share a little more about me.  Most people consider me to be a very caring, gentle, free spirit.  I am very optimistic, and I always have a smile on my face.   Seeing me now, you would never guess that my childhood was packed with many tears, much pain, fustration, and most of all failure.  As a child, I was quiet, but beneath the mask, I was scared and hurting all the time.  I was put into special educating and told I was stupid so many times I actually believed it.  I had a very low self-esteem, and absolutely no confidence in myself.  I was ignored and overlooked by everyone close to me.  It was so much easier to believe everyone then to put myself to the test and a part of me feared what I would find out about myself if  I did.  I had cancer, I was attacked, and had a family that didn't get along at all.  Now near I am 15-20 years later, I am a successful work from home mom, I am an actress, I am featured in Hannah Weston's 2010 Look book, and I am a professional business coach.  All of this is beyond my dreams and expectations of myself.  I don't ask myself anymore how this happens because I now know why it does, let me just say that over the last 2 years I have learned that all I needed to believe was in myself and  understand that I just had to change my attitude.  I did put myself to the test, and I found I was capable of just about anything.  I truely believe that the way you live is entirely up to you and your choices you make, how you overcome obstacles and how you deal. Don't be afraid, just try.  Don't be so ready to throw in the towel because things are not going your way.  So many people go to college for years and more then half don't even know what there major is.  Why be so willing to do that yet not be willing to do it for yourself, for your business, or others.  I have a degree and its called "Kelly's Law"  and it took me years to get it!
