A couple of weeks ago, I made a deal to augment my income by taking on another part time/spare time gig.
The project required me to put together a series of contact messages which eventually will be sent to each new client the company brings in.
My first challenge was to put together the dozen or so appropriate messages that will go to the clients. 
Once launched, every time a new client signs up, they will get these reminder emails . My job then becomes to make sure that as each client comes on board, the emails launch on the proper day as they are all time sensitive and address specific days in the program.
Today is launch day!
And I am actually nervous about this.
We're not talking about anything earth shattering or globally significant. 
Still, after weeks 2 weeks of putting this together, which comes after more than a year since the idea was first broached, I find myself both nervous and filled with a bit of anxious anticipation around this launch.
I am not sure what's at the root of all of this angst.
Possibly and most probably it is because for the first time in a long time it feels productive. 
There is no measurable result to let me know just how productive or useful these campaigns will be. 
The productive part is that I was tasked with a project and I have completed it.
No one stood over me and had to ask when will it be done.
No one had to prompt me or cajole me to meet a deadline. 
In fact other than a basic frame work of what was hoped for, the project fell squarely on my desk . But for a little bit of last minute polishing, I am ready to enter the email address of the new clients and press the send button.
I have no idea why this has me filled with so much anxious anticipation or nervousness. 
I just know how I am feeling about this and wanted to acknowledge that to some one.
Thanks for listening!
