Unhappy Losing Confidence

Lately I've been telling myself to give up on the whole voice-acting gig...Am I really that good? I can only see my voice coach 1 or 2 times a month due to finances, which makes me feel like it will take forever to get anywhere...

My coach says that I'm doing well, and when I put on accents or do characters, I keep in character throughout the whole script...

But then again, I have to go over short on-hold scripts several times because sometimes I'm not "conversational" enough...Documentaries are what I'd like to get into the most, but she has me read them and she records them at least 3 times...I sit down after I get out of the sound booth, and we go over the positives and the negatives...

Maybe I am nowhere near a natural, and that's what brings me down...Are any of your voice coaches really working you hard?

Does anyone wonder if this is the right field for them? I've been debating with myself whether I should even try anymore, but it scares me, because I have a tendency to give up on things easily..(it's something I really need to work on)...

Thanks for any comments
