So I have been on this forum for almost a year now, read the books and have been doing my fair share of action faking, but really decided to get started even if I might fail.
At this point it is almost about just executing on any reasonable idea just to break through the paralysis of not getting started.
Anyways to give you the basics, Im 24 years old, currently working a job that I hate but pays me fairly well, allowing me to save most of my income.
Problem is that I don't seem to have any marketable skills that I could leverage into starting my own business.
I got into the idea of teaching myself copywriting or coding like many others in my position seem to do, but Im not sure if I wanna go down the route of teaching myself a skill for possibly multiple years to start freelancing and then delegating... Not because it is too much work but rather because it doesn't seem to be Fastlane, especially without a clear, specific goal in mind.
I recently had this idea of using my saved income on a truck and offer a service business of picking up goods people want to send by cargo, including wrapping and boxing them and then delivering them to the (air-)port.
I think this is something that can be scaled pretty well and isn't bound to my time once I am able to delegate the work to others and buy more trucks and/or get more customers.
Biggest problem I have at this point is that I know virtually nothing about the industry and Im not sure how to set foot in it.
What do you guys think about this?
