First year in the books

So, it has been one Hell of a first year since I started working on this dream. This dream was so my mother could come live with me and I would take care of her as she aged. Sadly, my mother passed just after opening this online store. I did get to show her my dreams and desire but was unable to fulfill my desire to care for her, full time. At times I almost wanted to give up on having my own business; but I see so many people living a better life and I have to change my work life balance. I work about 50-60 hours a week as a nurse to pay the bills and build this company into a household name. In addition, I try to get out in nature and utilize the products I sell. Just so you know this is not a get rich quick scheme. I have lost money this year, but I am not discouraged as I know that it takes time and effort for a company to grow. Saying that I Am praying and hoping that this year the company will at least supports itself. I am telling you this because if you ever wanted to own a company you need to know that it takes on average of 3 years to make a profit, even in a brick-and-mortar store. So, start living your dreams be it in nature, business or your personal life and make it a reality!!!
