But how does it feel when you take on a journey and feel that you&#8217;re not prepared for it and that you never can be fully prepared for that? So this is what happened to me. For me, it started with a little Instagram post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.acast.com\/639c3dc4b5e0b10010db570c\/639c7e38fff919001131724e\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"100%\" height=\"80px\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time time it felt like: Well, it&#8217;s Instagram &#8211; probably nobody would notice. But then I got a comment from a fellow photographer who said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wow, now you&#8217;re going full in on your art. That&#8217;s great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And I was scared. Now I was on the hook. Now I had somebody who cared about me and who cared about what I do. He liked my work enough to wish me all the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now I&#8217;m committed  that I have to deliver this promise that I gave to nobody, especially. I have a companion  a <a href=\"https:\/\/businesszenlife.com\/home\/a-personal-reflection-on-the-artistic-process\/\">commitment<\/a> partner, which is very important in this process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the moment I don&#8217;t have a business plan, I don&#8217;t have a business <a href=\"https:\/\/businesszenlife.com\/home\/blow-up\/\">model<\/a> for my <a href=\"https:\/\/businesszenlife.com\/home\/artist-statement\/\">photography<\/a>. But I feel fine with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will take it day by day and the first thing that I have to do is show myself in order to build an audience. And what will happen next, nobody knows, but I&#8217;m open to the opportunities that will arise from this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am starting a photography business without a business plan.
