Hello there, fellow people!
I want to introduce myself on this forum and just to give thank to everyone. I've read multiple threads before creating my account and just wanted to tell my story.
So, I'm from eastern europe, 20 years old, dropped from university because of some IRL problems.
It's all started one year ago. I was mostly clueless, maybe even childish, because I wasn't showed up to real world too much. I was following the path, the steps. Like, you'll learn to be good specialist, get good job, etc. But, at my first year at university I understood - this is total lie. I were learning something that will not help me in my future. But I didn't even know what my future was. So, with this thought, maybe I rushed too early dropping out of university (throught, there was some problems I were unable to solve). Maybe I will regret it. But. I will only regret it, if I'll stay at one place and do nothing with this. You know, you play with cards given, and not the other way around. Like Mr. Demarco said in his books - our choices led us to our life now.
As for my mentality and all - I was pretty shy, was afraid literally of everything and so on, but something... changed.
I were overthinking. Maybe it's because I thought I were too smart for something, or etc. Maybe even special. But then, real world hit.
I tried go to work, my first job was nothing special - clerk. Gave up on it after one month. You know, that's "do what you love" hit and I were angry at this job. But if I even knew...
Second job is the most funniest thing ever happened to me. I got depression on it because of one thing. Also found a new friends. And, of course, got into problems and someone tried to put me in debt because 'you lost wares'. Yeah, I lost them like everyone who worked before and after me now. Stolen, lost, maybe computer is glitching - I dunno. I'm glad i'm outta of it. So yeah, you can imagine what it looks now - they can't find new people for the job. Problem is - I knew that everyone got into troubles because of this, but I didn't give a damn. I thought that If you're good enough, there will be no problems. Oh boy. And that's not speaking about RESPONSIBILITIES. You had to be jack of all trades. So yeah, let's just stop. Job was BS. But it also gave me experience. Not job experience, but experience in total. So, yeah, because of this job I lost my university. But you know, I'm mostly responsible for this because I were doing it blindly. Not thinking about various consequences.
After that affair, I got onto third job, but it's nothing special. Just got out and tried to do something.
So, as a young guy, I thought, why not try to get into programming? This is was my 'true dream', I guess. So I started learning it. Learned about creating websites with technical mentality. Like, you need to be a good programmer to get good money. But it didn't end up doing well. Lost few months. At least no money - I didn't believed in those courses all over the web. I got into my thinking again and thought, like, well, how can I tell them that I'm good at my skills? And, after two failed interviews (they didn't even answered me, so yeah), I got into vegetable state. I just... Were doing nothing. Just procrastination.
New year came. Nothing happened. And then I remembered - Unscripted that I heard somewhere on the Internet...
It just opened my eyes on so much things... Not just enterpreneurship, but in life total. I was angry on everything, and I was hurt, because of betrayal, because I were lied that if I were good at learning (let me tell you - I were top best grades in school and in university, but end up here). I thought the success was doing something FOR MYSELF. Because I had problems with self-esteem.
So, you know my type, I think there's a bunch of guys like me on this forum.
I were just reading all of books from MJ DeMarco. It was like a fresh air and something good to soothe my pain. But I must admit - I'm only staying behind. I'm not trying anything right now, but I got few ideas. Just don't know how to get them. Feeling lost, or maybe afraid of failure? Speaking of failure...
Not only my university went off, but I even tried to get into business. It was... Oh. I'm ashamed of in best case. Partnership deal. Empty place with nothing and just idiotic advertisement. My partner was... well. I'm not good in my own deal - because I were doing nothing much because of things I wrote above. I even got myself even lower. I thought thay If I'm smart the things will go my way. Yeah, idiot. At least there will be some funny stories.
So, what am I going to do now? Well, I dunno. Books helped me. But if I'm not going to do something - I'll be stuck here. At least after this rollercoaster of my life I got stronger. I really felt that there's nothing to be too much afraid of. Maybe I will even thank this rollercoaster, because if not this rollercoaster - there wouldn't be this post. And joining this forum.
That's all for now. I hope my post was at least interesting to you. Thank you for reading. And, of course, you're free to ask me something.
