<Hr>

So yesterday, [I posted about sending a total stranger a job proposal](https://hive.blog/hive-146620/@josediccus/pitching-a-business-idea-to-a-total-stranger) and after hours of countless back and forth on what the job description should be like, and the terms and conditions and all the other details, this person finally agreed to give me an opportunity.


 So I need to hit the ground running and prove that I have the skills to pull this off; it is an opportunity that can be extremely profitable, but it requires a lot of work in the short term.


 I decided to text this person, half expecting them to respond, which they did. I didn't really think about having that much work on my hand. The amount of effort required will be enormous, but it is nothing I have not done before. 

I relish the challenge, not because it's going to be easy, but I feel that I need to immediately prove that I can deliver. I passed the test, which proved that I could do the job, and I am pleased with that, but taking on so much responsibility feels strange, and it has been a long time since I have felt that way. 


The last time I had a gig like this was ten years ago, and I decided to get back into the job market for a business opportunity that could be rewarding.


## Could be

"Could" because the success of this deal is dependent on how smart and hard I can work; obviously, my partner has the resources and firepower, but they are useless if I cannot bring the necessary skills to make the deal a success. 


We have talked about money, and I am completely comfortable with what this person is offering, but the money is not the issue; it is the fact that I need to work just as hard to make this deal a reality. It's a challenge I've accepted and I'm honestly relishing it. 




The formalities associated with this job were quite stressful; it took over 3 hours to complete them, but I believe this was necessary because we needed to familiarize ourselves in order to establish a working relationship, which is critical.

## Could be something 

 From texting a random stranger to discussing the job description and becoming fully acquainted with them. It feels unreal and just two days, we're here. As I previously stated, it is not a job that pays you regardless of your performance; rather, it is a job that rewards creativity and hard work, and I could still walk away with nothing if I am unable to deliver. 


The next few weeks will determine how far I can go, and it will require a lot of effort from my end. My partner doesn't have the time, as she's got a lot to take care of. She is already doing her part by giving me the tools I need to make it happen, and I am guessing she will leave it with me. 


It is terrifying at this point, but it is the dream opportunity I have been waiting for. I can not believe I am actually getting cold feet and scared, but I guess it is all the emotions of not knowing how it will all turn out. I will let you know how it turns out in a week or two.
