Background: 23y/o, live with my parents, no “real job” at the moment.

I am not going to lie, my situation is pretty much the same as the guy in this thread.

https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/fear-and-action-faking-in-entrepreneurship-a-19-year-olds-guide-to-askholing.74070/

I am massively guilty of action faking, and it's driving me crazy.

I have been beating my head against the wall for over a year now, trying to make my first $ online, but back then i didn't know that my problem was not my method, but my mindset.

In Short: My mind is a clusterfuck of negative thoughts. I'm shy, socially awkward and most definetly have low self-esteem.

So join me in this quest. I will cold call, network, and approach business owners until I beat the ever living shit out of my insecurities.

I will try to bring balance to my life, go to the gym, be a bit more outgoing and try to comunicate more with my family.

Oh yes, and i will make money too.

My Service:
I will develop and rent out Lead Generation systems (website+adwords/bing ads) to small businesses.

Goal:
My goal is to get clients, become a freelancer and make 2'500 € pre-tax per month before the end of the year.

The Next Step:
Next step is to write a script and start cold calling businesses outside my city.
Will update this thread at least once a week.

It is time to break out of this pattern and change.

ps. sorry if this first post is weird and a bit all over the place.
