My life is restarting essentially. I've moved cities and have to become succesful. I'm 23 years old and have owned a service business (in the cleaning industry). I did that from 18-21. I've had a couple "FTEs" this month, and the fire is still lit.

I was inspired by another member here and took a similar path. I taught myself to code from 2019 to 2021 and got a job as a software engineer, with the intention of getting into some tech-related business.

Here I am, working 9-5 and not really sure what to do. I don't have a "tech-related" business that I want to work on. But I want to work on something, anything at this point. It doesn't have to be sexy. But I feel like I'm just going through the motions. Ideally, I want to work on a business that has to do with software as I have skills there now, and I wouldn't want it to go to waste.

I'm not really sure what I'm asking here. Where do I start? Software development agency? I just feel like I'm not sure what direction I should move in, so I'm not really moving at all. I just want to grind hard
