Don't wait to be acknowledged, claim your stakes and get to it. Understand that fear and confusion follow all of us, yet even a bad decision can teach you a lot about your business. In fact bad decisions often lead to better ones, but NO decision leads nowhere. Get involved in online discussion groups, and spend time with peers. Ask, ask, ask all the questions you can, and move toward the vision you have for your life and work. Send me an email at rebelmassage@yahoo.com and I'll share some resources that can keep you motivated.

I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist for over a year now. I am just starting to do my CEU hours. I do love massage, my clientele is slowly building. I give out business cards to someone new almost every day. So I am trying. It is just a slow build. I have not registered myself as a business yet because I really don't know much about that and I don't feel like I have the clientele to even call myself a business and make any money at it. I do have a location that i do my massages also. I really don't think i want to work in a spa and do 6 massages in a day, i don't think my body could handle it. I sort of wish i had a career advisor/life advisor. I am a single mom of two teenagers and i work another part time job too. That i am afraid to just let go because that is also a good way to get clients, its worked out great actually for that. See, I am just a little bit confused. I am about to take a class in LaStone Therapy and get certified, so i will be able to add that to my business too. Thanks for listening. HI,
