Very productive meeting today, really think we have made the best choice for a mentor. We’ll really get some good value from him because he fills in all the gaps in our skill base. Just talking to him this afternoon showed us the scope of his knowledge, either that, or he’s very good at winging it! But I’m sure he knows his stuff, I’ve known him for 2 years, seen his own business grow exponentially, and I trust his judgment.
Just been watching 2 shows tonight about start-ups, Make me a Million (C4) and Dragon’s Den (BBC2). When you see some of the other businesses you inevitably begin to compare yourself to them, and I find this even extends to me in my everyday life. I look at haulage trucks on the motorway, or shops in the high street, and think, well if they can make a business work with all their overheads, then surely we can. And I keep looking for any weaknesses in our business, anything at all that might mean we fail. But I can't find anything. And so I have faith. And then I wobble. And then I have undoubted faith!! Is that normal?
Sorted some extra babysitting for Luke tomorrow so I can get 4 hours of solid content into the database. Having 2 days where I’m supposed to be ‘working’ whilst Luke is in nursery is great in theory, but when it’s full of meetings away from the computer, it’s not so good. But essential nevertheless. So I’m starting to get a bit concerned now that I won’t get all the content in, hence I’m sat here tonight at 10.40pm, and I’m making some more hours available tomorrow. Got to really focus now for a few weeks, so that by Christmas we have the site ready to go!
Grit teeth, head down and plough on!
