Engineering student with sales skills?

[AustinEngy]

I read TMF over the course of a couple months (I'm a very slow reader) after feeling disgruntled by Tai Lopez and finding a forum where someone mentioned the book. Though I feel a lot of the information in the book was straight forward, I've found a number of bits that would help me determine if an idea is worth pursuing. Particularly, the CENTS section of the book was great.

A background about me, I'm currently about to finish up an Electrical Engineering degree but have been focusing on honing my social skills and networking over the last year. Through this I've come to realize what I've been feeling my whole life, that I really don't want to work in a typical job, but desire to be someone who truly creates from my own visions.

Since I was a young kid in Cub Scouts, I've always had a nack for selling things, popcorn, Christmas wreaths, project ideas and my own experiences and abilities to employers. When I've gone to engineering competitions many of my peers struggle to convey their abilities and accomplishments to employers while I get thrilled off of showing off my projects. In turn, I feel these skills would be highly valuable in executing ideas and being able to convince customers and investors on the value of my products.

I get that people say you don't need a revolutionary idea to make money, but I feel that with my engineering experience that I'm likely to do best in the area of developing a proprietary product. I've still got a lot of reading to do, but reading TMF and this forum has helped me to be more alert to people's struggles, and to investigate negative experiences I find or hear about for potential Fastlane viability.

That's me!
