Why do we complicate the process of money? So many of us struggle with how to get started. None of this is rocket science. There are processes from many that have made it which are laid out in DETAIL all over this forum.
We are our own worst enemies sometimes. We see success by others and want it right away. We read of people quitting their jobs and want to quit. Our impatience seems to hinder our ability to think critically.
Age seems to play a large factor. So many want to quit school and/or jobs and just dive right in. Obviously this can be done but most are not successful on the first venture. This is not a problem if you have saved enough money to sustain yourself while you march through your process.
Any of us can make money. All we need is a basic plan that we can follow. If we are not successful the first time, adjust and do it again.
I went the route of real estate for a business. While there are a few here on the forum that go that route, it is not a popular option. This is because this process takes too much patience. In most cases you need to save money (on a JOB). It also takes a lot of experience which takes time. There are plenty of businesses that take the same level of commitment. We don't tend to go this route though. We want instant success.
I have heard the argument about doing what you love vs. doing what will make money. Why can't you just simply love what you do? Life is about experiences. We can look at the fact that we go down an uncomfortable path as a negative if we choose, or we can see it as a learning opportunity.
We have time in our lives. Let's take our time and have fun in the process.
Make your plan. Move yourself ahead. Don't get frustrated if it does not work the first time. Enjoy what you do!
