Hi Annie,

Don’t forget that you don’t get over fear *before* you take action…you get over fear *by* taking action. You can do it. 🙂

I needed to read this! My fear of pitching is really holding me back, and I’ve been guilty of browsing these sites. I know that, once I get over my fear, it’ll be easier than I’m making it out to be in my head. I just need to push myself!

Hi Jeff,

Yeah, if you ask me, there’s very little point in hitting a “dream number” if you have to make yourself miserable to get there. Especially when there’s a better way! You can make good money *and* enjoy what you do, without working insane hours. 🙂

I taught public school for ten years plus college. (Honestly, I think I worked more hours than that. Gulp.) Sadly, I lived that life only without the benefit of a six figure salary. I think this person doesn’t understand your argument. Being filthy rich is about doing what you love and being paid well for doing it. That has always has been the sticking point of your pitch. Literacy skills. You can’t criticize what you don’t comprehend.

Hi Laila,

I agree; he may be happy now, but not for long! And it absolutely *is* possible – it’s a matter of taking the right steps with consistency and persistence. You can do it. 🙂

Wow.. just reading his rollercoaster of a workload turned me off completely. There’s a difference between working “hard” and working “smart”. It seems like it’s working out for him, but you’re right – a burnout is imminent. Now, I’d love to make six figures copywriting, but not like that. I wholeheartedly believe the perfect balance of work and life, while maintaining a six figure income is possible. It won’t happen overnight, but if you hold to your values and put yourself out there a bit – you can direct the sails of your own ship, so to speak, and make it a reality!
