Why Does Everyone Think I’m Crazy!
I’m signing up on Monday to start selling jewelry with Premier Designs. I’m excited about it as it’s something new and something that I think will be a good fit for me in the long run. The thing is everyone I have talked to recently has told me I’m crazy and that I should put my money elsewhere. I guess for them that’s easy to say, they have jobs and don’t really have a lot of debt. I also think they don’t want to have a Jewelry party so they are trying to talk me out of it, I won’t force them too or anything.
The other issue is they don’t know what it’s like to be out of work right now and scraping by. They tell me to get a real job and stop trying to be different. They just don’t see that I can’t. No one will hire me and really I’m not sure why. I get the usual excuses of over qualified or under qualified or the you can’t work and go to school at the same time thing. I keep trying, but to no avail.
I don’t think I’m crazy, if this get’s me another $100 after expenses a month I’m thrilled. If not at least I can keep jewelry for a long time and I can use it, it’s not just going to sit there. I guess I just want some support and it just does not seem to be here. It seems everything I do, no matter what it is, is just not the right thing or good enough. It’s hard to stay positive but I’m trying.

I am so sorry you have had such a negative response. I know how discouraging that can be! I just signed up on Monday with Premier as well. My family has really encouraged me, however, many of my very close friends have not been so positive. Once I tell them what I am doing the only response I get is, “Oh, why would you want to do that?” I am doing it mainly to make a little extra, meet new people since I am fairly new to the area in which I live and to challenge myself. The worse that can happen is that I make back what I put into it and have great jewelry!
It know it is a scary thing when you step out into a new area and then have those close to you be a discouragement. However, there have been several times in my life where I have done things that no one quite understood, and they turned out to be the best decisions I ever made!
Hang in there! You have support here!
Thanks for the kind and encouraging words. I sign up tomorrow and I am excited and yesterday one friend showed an interest in it and she wants to do a party, but can’t in her small apartment.
I’m hoping it all works out and as you said the worst that can happen is I make my money back and have some nice jewelry for when I graduate and go on those job interviews!
