04/06/2026 was the very first day I embarked on my journey as the owner of Bell’s Mobile Mechanic company. I got let go from the company I was working for. I had been in my career for over 15 years worked for multiple companies in the skills trade industry as a Maintenance Technician II. In 15+ years I seen multiple layoffs, been let go due to company down sizing, and many other reasons. I took a leap of faith by starting my own business. No money coming in made a post on facebook. Got a few leads the first week thought everything would be okay second week nothing, third week more leads, 4 week just a few leads. Ready to give up and find another maintenance job. But I haven’t still trying. 3 days into the sixth week and I’m still not sure if I made the right decision. But I said all that to say this. Yesterday I noticed what I had done wrong with choosing my leads, so I have adult ADHD, if I choose jobs to work on that require a lot of time to finish then I will not be successful because there are too many things that can cause me to chase a squirrel so to speak. But if I choose jobs that are less time consuming I can get multiple opportunities to work on other things because I allow myself to have more time. I’m not good at giving advice but that’s how I see myself helping myself with getting discouraged
