If you’re staring at your screen thinking, “Maybe I should just quit this whole thing…”
The Messy Middle Is Real
First of all—breathe.
Second—you’re not alone.
Running an online business (especially solo) is not all pretty Pinterest boards and money rolling in screenshots. Even though a lot of people try to convince you that it is!
Some days it’s tech fails, there are tumbleweeds in your inbox, and you’re wondering why you ever started.
Been there. A lot.
But you know what?
Those moments of doubt usually show up right before things start to click.
💪 What to Do Instead of Giving Up
The beginning is exciting.
The end is rewarding.
But the middle?
It’s messy. Uncomfortable. Uncertain.
And full of “why isn’t this working?” questions.
This doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re growing.
Here’s your survival kit for those “I’m done” days:
1. Reconnect with your ‘Why.’
Why did you start this? What dream are you chasing? Who are you helping?
2. Zoom out.
Look at how far you’ve come instead of how far you still have to go.
3. Do one small thing.
Just one. Send a short email. Create a fun reel. Sketch out a product idea. Movement > perfection.
4. Rest if you need to.
Seriously. The best ideas often show up when you stop forcing them.
