It may just be today...sometimes we have good days, sometimes we don't. Today I am feeling overwhelmed.
A few years ago I made the concience decision to not end up in a JOB for life. I decided the solution to this would be an education in commerce. So I set down that road. I've been attending classes and following mindlessley, hoping that in the end, with my degree in hand, the ritches will come pouring in.
Something changed in my thinking 6 months ago and I realized that although a formal education is important, it is not necessarily a recipe for success. There is a great deal to learn that is not taught in schools.
In the past 6 months I've dedicated the majority of time to reading books, searching the internet, and even starting a small business of my own, which has realized some success. I have huge aspirations of moving into the fastlane and I understand the motions on how to get there. I just don't know what my vehicle will be.
I know that I have the drive and passion to succeed in making it into the fastlane, but right now I just feel overwhelmed. There is too much information out there. Too much to know about too many different subjects. At the moment I find I know a little about a lot. I'm having difficulties deciding on where my interests truly lie. I am interested in all facets of business.
So, where is someone to begin?
Do I dive into something and hope to float, or do I carefully wade in and test the waters gingerly?
How did you choose your vehicle?
