Day 081 | A pinch of fear mixed with a pinch of excitement

The work we did before SXSW was a lot of the initial set up. Now that is done the proper set up begins and that is both exciting and a little scary.

We’re meeting a recommended accountant on Saturday and in a couple of weeks we have our first official meeting to discuss our products with an external party. It’s all becoming real and as much as I know that deep down I’m really excited, right now there’s another feeling taking over and that’s a slight fear related to the workload and how I’m going to juggle it all with a full time job.

I’m well aware that right now is not the most accurate picture of my reality. I’ve just returned from 10 very intensive days away, in a different timezone (two actually but not a big difference). I started a new job yesterday and it’s a busy week at work. I haven’t seen D or my friends, or talked with anyone whilst I’ve been away so there is a lot of catching up to do. There’s also a few nights of sleep to catch up on. It’s pretty natural that I’m feeling a little overwhelmed. Quite frankly I just want to sleep and have a weekend off.

Am I worried? Not really. Once I catch up slightly on my sleep, fall back into my previous rhythm of juggling things, and most important of all, see my co-founder again, which is tomorrow, it will all start to feel a bit more under control, and real. Then the excitement will pop up to the surface.
