I’ve thought about doing drop shipping after watching a YouTube video on it, but I’m afraid something might go wrong. I’ve thought about being a virtual assistant in the same way. I don’t know. Maybe I’m afraid because I don’t know much about these things yet. Maybe I need to do more research on them. I can definitely write books, though. I love writing!
