Hi

I have started buying and reselling items on eBay.

I've done $1300 this past month.

Here is where my mindset is having issues. I am currently living with family and putting most of my attention on reselling while I teach myself skills in IT.

Sometimes I feel I should have a job and doing this leads to nowhere.

Even though I'm doing decent I have negative thoughts a lot of time.

I'm 26 years old and it just gets to me when I'm out in social settings and everyone is taking about their jobs and I'm reselling retro video games.

Could just be my insecurities and doubting myself

I am not sure what I am asking but I'd like to know if any of you also feel this way.

Thanks
