14 years old, any advice?

[C418]

Hi, quick introduction to me.

My hobbies consist of chess and reading books recommended to others on this forum. I'm mainly caught up in books, but also looking to make use of the knowledge from the books I read and use it in the businesses I build.

I'm really just looking for some advice that you would give your 14 year old self if you traveled to them in a time machine now.

Cheers.

DO IT!

Start a business, go mow lawns, sell tutoring, make a website and sell digital products/services, sell websites to others, resell good deals/free items you find from the thrift store/side of the road on garbage day, make a store on Ebay or Etsy.

Don't just keep in shape, be at the gym everyday. Do your pushups/sit ups. Stay away from the drunks and smokers.

Honestly at 14 years old the best thing you can do is do whatever it takes to earn $1. If that means getting a job, then get a job. Mowing lawns, car detailing, junk removal, etc. There will always be someone that needs help cleaning or pulling weeds.
Build your reputation as someone reliable. That might mean earning $5 an hour in the beginning. The experience is worth it.
