Here in the last couple of days I've been fortunate to talk to people with experience in the fashion industry and gained some very insightful information. There was one who found herself practically an overnight success story, one who has a successful clothing line carried in boutiques, another has an online specialty clothing business, and a few others. I've been wanting to try my hand in it for quite some time but could never find the time to research and learn my craft. Some of them shared the downside of the business and it did evoke a bit of fear within myself.
I have to confess the biggest fear is the financial strain that could occur if things don't pan out. I was told yesterday by one designer that perserverance was the key, and the ones who didn't consider their venture a success so to speak didn't have the perserverance. It really takes alot of hard work and for whatever reason their venture was placed on the backburner and there was a financial loss.
Love referencing this scripture when I'm feeling a bit anxious b/c it is a reminder that things will be okay...working on myself because I do have the tendency to overthink things.
Philippians 4:6-8
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things.
