Although I have accomplished quite a bit in my short lifetime, I’m going through a stage where I feel like a loser.
I’ve been slacking off and honestly kind of board with my business. It’s at the point where I can get by without doing much work.
Everytime I come back to my hometown my family just doesn’t get it. They don’t understand my entrepreneurial mindset.
I’m 21 years old and I’ve built an online fitness coaching business.
I’ve generated multiple six figures over the last 2-3 years.
I decided I was finished with college after my freshman year and wanted to pursue my business all the way.
I moved to San Diego and I’ve been there for about two years.
Although most people would say you’re doing amazing and killing it.
I know I could be doing better.
I want a bigger opportunity, I want to work harder, and develop a vision so huge it scares me.
I feel like my next evolution is coming up but right now I’m in the growing pains where I feel a little lost and unsure of what’s next.
I have a few ideas and I’m testing out the market for them but it’s an uncomfortable period.
I feel like I’m just coasting and not growing. It’s not a fun place to be.
Any advice?
It’s all good, brother. I’m 47 and ha e worked for myself since 1994 and have been rich and just got by sometimes. You’ve got a hustlers mindset, and that’s not a bad thing. My mom passed away 3 years ago tomorrow, and she made me realize that she was proud of me no matter what I did. As long as I put my all into it, she was proud. Live for yourself on your terms. Your family will eventually realize you can take care of yourself, and that will change. As far as what you do. Don’t worry about how much you make. Do something that makes you happy and eventually make it into a career. I still consider myself a hustler because I can make money in different ways. As an artist, writer, business owner, and more. Try being happy and then when the money comes. It will be that much more rewarding! Good luck 👍
