Anyone here self employed? Or have you ever tried your hand at self employment and failed miserably? I haven't held a public job since 2008, I was involved in a couple small automotive related business the last of which was in 2014 that I ended up loosing around 30k on, since then I have been very gun shy about starting over, I have lost all my confidence in myself and my drive. My wife has been the primary bread winner for the last 4 years and that has taken a toll on me. I have an idea and can get a hold of enough financing to try again but all I can think about is what if I loose it what if I fuck it up what if ect...? how do I gain the confidence to move forward?

Hi! I'm self employed. I run a café in a medical mall.

Try assessing your past experiences and why things went wrong. What didn't work? What did work? What gives your new idea an edge, what makes it different? Why will it be successful? Can you do it by yourself? What's your plan for paying back the investment?

I will most likely have to mortgage some property I have in order to get the start up money, and the success of the venture would determine if I can repay the loan...so if it fails I've lost my property
