Well.. I just read a post where it told me I should stop lurking... thanks @Andy Black

I'm sure a lot of you may have been in this situation that I'm in and honestly, maybe I'm just looking for some advise.
I don't want to be a "wantrapreneur"... I want to be an entrepreneur! Maybe I'm a bit stuck with where I should start.

I have my 1/5/10 plannacy, I sold and got rid of my financed mustang, I have ideas on how can reach my goals. I just feel right now like I may have business ideas, but I'm a bit scatterbrained.

The things I know I want:
1. Get out of working my 9-5 job and go move to BC (Just a bit worried about my parents)
My mom has cancer she just had surgery and she's cancer free right now, but still needs chemo and radiation and still is unable to go back to work. My dad is working with hip problems and is too stubborn to get his hip replaced, and very likely to get laid off if there is a recession. Currently my partner and I are helping pay rent.

2. I want financial freedom and I want to pay my parents mortgage off + help my mother in law have a house to live in.
3. I want a cottage area or air bnb campground area, where I can have family get togethers.

Now, to get to the point of this...

I have an idea, where my partner and I could go both down to at least part time in a normal 9-5 by doing some yard maintenance and yard/roof cleanup within the region with snowblowing, raking leaves, gutter cleaning, ect.. trying to trade less of our time for a higher yield of profit.

I have a food business idea, of a food I could make and a skew that could work. I just don't have 20-30k at the moment to drop on it. But then again I could always try making the product and selling it at fairs to start out to see how people like it.

My partner and I also have an air bnb idea, for when the house market crashes, but then again, Currently not a lot of money to put down on it.. yet!

These are just a few of our ideas. We keep having business ideas that pop up into our heads, which I guess is a good thing but I don't want to focus on too many, rather, just one and I want to execute it! Sometimes, I feel like we keep going back and forth on business ideas. I want to stop thinking of the possibilities, and become the entrepreneur I know I can be.
