Happy Chinese New Year everyone, it's me, Cecilia! How's everyone doing lately? 🌟
It's time for my weekly update again. This week has been like a rollercoaster ride! Last week, I was complaining about not getting many orders, but guess what? One day, out of the blue, I got 10 orders! Yup, 10 orders in one day! It's the first time I hit double digits in a single day! I thought my business was about to skyrocket, and I'd be living the high life, but hey, let's not get carried away. Still, this breakthrough gives me confidence that what I'm doing is valuable. All I gotta do now is keep learning, keep pushing, and I know I'll make it! Go me! 💪😄
You know Jenny Hoyos from YouTube? I watched her interview recently, and wow, she's amazing! Seems like she cracked the lgorithm for YouTube shorts, coming up with her own tricks to get tons of views anytime. I'm so envious of people like her, juggling life as both an actor and director, playing their roles while also directing their own lives. I think we're all actors in a way, playing different roles in school, at home, in our businesses. Some folks spend their whole lives trying to figure out how to play their part, while others nail it even when the script sucks. But then there are those who realize early on what they're capable of, stepping out of their roles to become the writers and directors of their own lives, rewriting their own scripts. 🎭📽️
But hey, I made some progress this week too! Without even realizing it, my YouTube channel hit 50,000 subscribers! I'm super proud of myself! Sure, my major in college was photography and editing, but I've poured my heart and soul into YouTube. I'm constantly learning, searching for resources, mimicking successful channels, shooting, editing, going live, interacting with viewers – you name it, I'm doing it! And I'm grateful for the positive feedback from the platform and my viewers. It keeps me going. I'll keep pushing forward and remember all the experiences that inspired me. And if my channel ever becomes a household name, I'll do whatever I can to inspire others too! 🎥✨
So yeah, this week had its ups and downs, but it's progress for me. I'll keep trying to find more orders, learn from others' success, and keep believing in the future. Entrepreneurship is all about trial and error, right? As long as I don't give up and keep seeking truth and knowledge, I know I'll make it! 🚀🌟

I just wanted to say I love your website! I think it’s awesome you are pursuing your dreams and talking about it so openly. It’s inspiring to me because I always feel stuck in a constant state of I want to create/achieve but I also don’t know how/afraid to start. When I see others talk about their journey with whatever venture they’re pursuing its like it adds a little fuel to my own fire, if that makes sense. I’m still in the contemplation/preparation stage for many of my goals but you got me thinking about them again. I also read your most recent blog post about advertising and packaging changes. I figured I’d mention that I heard about you from my sister, who seen your advertisements on Facebook. So something must be working there. Your prices are great for what you have to offer and my opinion is the advertising is worth it because I’m an avid sanrio shopper. I’m always searching for new products or merchants and with your prices/stock it’s only a matter of time for enough people to see what you have to offer before they become fans. I’m no expert on business or selling but as a customer I can tell you that shopping on tiktok live where the creator can take and pack orders in real time, seems like a good way to generate business. I seen you have a tiktok but since I just now cmgot introduced I’m not sure if you already go live or not. Anyway, I think your shop is awesome, good luck in all your endeavors!
