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?

    Hey there,

    Firstly, kudos on the incredible achievements at such a young age! It’s totally normal to feel a bit lost even when things are going well. The fact that you’re recognizing this phase and actively seeking growth speaks volumes about your commitment.

    Consider this period a necessary pit stop on the road to your next big thing. Explore those uncomfortable feelings, test out those ideas, and embrace the uncertainty. Growth often emerges from the discomfort of change.

    Remember, it’s okay to feel this way, and it’s a sign that you’re ready for the next chapter. Reflect on your journey, celebrate your wins, and let that entrepreneurial mindset guide you towards your evolving vision.

    You’ve got the drive and ambition; trust the process, and the next big opportunity will reveal itself. Keep pushing, stay passionate, and don’t forget to celebrate the journey.

    You’re on the right track—keep moving forward!
