[QUOTE="asdfk, post: 1206612, member: 10035"] I’ve started my own business by myself in May. I never realized how difficult dealing with self-doubt can be and the sacrifices it would take. I was doing 100K a year working on products / content of other businesses. I figured the next step would be to own those products / funnels myself. “I have a track record in making money for other people,” I thought, “why don’t I make money for myself?” Turns out putting in all those hours with uncertainty of success does not bode well with my neurotic personality. I fear I’m wasting my time and my youthful vigor on a project that I do not like that much and is just a way to build an asset that churns out dollar bills. All the menial shit I have to do that I was not responsible before makes me want to flip out. I’ve lost my shit to people I don’t know several times after a particularly hard day. I’m also learning the hard way it takes a LOT of sacrifice. I can’t work on this business every day AND chase women every day AND work out every day AND learn a new language AND travel to a new country every few months. I severely underestimated the mental drain of uncertainty and the isolation that comes with building a business from your laptop alone in some anonymous hotel room. Maybe it gets better when I have some traction. Maybe I should move too some nomad hub. Maybe I should quit altogether and do something that suits my personality better. [/QUOTE]
