One woman's struggle to find the answer.

My mission, or assignment should I say is to write an article dealing with the "HOW TO'S" of a topic dealing with Home Businesses or the likes thereof.

The very thought of me being or pretending to be an expert at anything makes me nervous and my stomach turn! Sure, I own my own business and am associated with many affiliate programs, but a know-it-all or writter, I am not.

Question upon question kept running through my mind, like: !. What is an artical? 2. Should I write about all technical "stuff" 3. Or is it more like a story(like the newspaper)? 4. Do you have to write an autobiography at the end (you know the little box at the end that everyone knows you write yourself complete with bragging rights) 6. Is it just your personal opion about a topic of your choice? 7. Should it be educational and informative? 8. What's the appropriate lenght? 9. Will everyone flip because I didn't follow directions? 10. Who in their right mind would want to read anything I wrote anyways? And so on............................................................... ................................................................. ................................................................. ....................................... You get the pitchure.

I researched, read others articles, and tossed and turned for two nights sweating over my delima. Finally,. I decided not to write about 'these 10 steps to success' , " I am the knig of the hill because..." or "Follow these tips and millions will flock to your website!" and quit making it so hard.

The answers to these questions never did come to me and I'm sorry to say I have no "new amazing product to sell you that will give you all of the answers to the universe" only these few simple thoughts:

***JUST write what you think and feel!*** ***DON'T worry if you're not an expert,guru,computor nerd(meant-in awe of!) or have ten degrees!*** ***NEVER be intimidated by Mr. PhD of computor sciences!*** ***BE proud even if you're the only person to read your article and never stop trying!*** and last but not least ***REMEMBER this great big "cyber" world takes all kinds - EVEN mine and yours!
