They run a regular feature on their blog entitled Quit your Day Job. Every time I read one of these articles I am liking the idea more and more.
I've spent all morning designing a theoretical studio space and I have shelves full of ceramic work that I would love to sell, with more being produced every week. I dream of ceramics all day while I am at work, and my day job is looking pracariously close to the edge of no longer exhisting.
So what is stopping me from setting up shop? I've had a website "in development" for months now, and I've got hundreds of pages of notes and lists, books, advice etc.
I am afraid of failing to make money, or making enough money, and it hurts to admit that this is what is holding me back from being truely happy. Slow little steps that I am taking today will get me to running my own business someday, I just wish I had the guts to make the leap, instead of climbing all the way there petrified.
