First of all, your profile name gives off a negative vibe, which clearly suggests you're a low-energy person.
Hey everyone, I'm currently 21 and I always dreamed to make big online since I was a kid.
You're just 21 years old. What's happening to you is that you're overwhelmed by seeing other people's success at your age. You feel like you need quick money, cars, homes, mansions, expensive trips? No. Everyone has a different timeline in this game.
Not everyone gets rich in their 20s. Not everyone gets rich in their 30s. For some, it can take more than 40 years just to get on the right track. That’s just how it is.
But it all depends on how much effort you put into one thing.
Focus on one thing at a time. Master it. Fail again and again and again and again and again and again, and keep learning. That’s how this works. Eventually, you’ll become a master at it.
I started doing youtube when I was 12 and since then I have tried different online hustle, especially on past 4 years.
I have tried dropshipping, youtube, affiliate marketing, digital products, freelancing and so on. But nothing seems to work. I barely even made 100 dollar till now.
And I’m pretty sure you’ve never truly given your best at something. Because if you had, if you consistently worked hard at it, pushed through, and became faster than others, then that momentum would eventually take you where you need to be.
All from this experience, I realized that you need money to make money online, especially if your home country and your target country is different.
I feel like im wasting my 20s on home trying to make big online but with the risk of being crushed by any giant instantly.
This is just an excuse. I'm also from a third-world country, but I'm grinding to build a better life for myself. I've never quit, quitters are losers.
I wanna go out and meet new people. I am planning to start a new offline business. What shall I do? Shall I move on from online hustle? Please give some advice!
Also, I’m confident that with this mindset, you'll likely fail at offline business too.
Here are my last two cents:
It doesn't matter if it's online or offline. What matters is how you use your time and energy to produce quality work. It's not about working 16 hours a day. That’s not the real measure. The real measure is how much meaningful work you’ve actually completed.
The most important thing is mindset. And mindset can't be trained with a lazy body. You need to start at the gym. I’m 100 percent sure you’re not hitting the gym. You need to build physical energy first, and then focus that energy on your work, not on chasing people or wasting time on distractions.
This is how you grow. Otherwise, 10 years from now, you’ll still be saying the same things and blaming your circumstances.
Plan for you.
If you're really serious, take this whole conversation and drop it into ChatGPT. Let it guide you and ask you the right questions if you’re truly ready to change. It will provide a winning system not daily goals. Build a system for something and keep following that day and night for a year.
Give it one year. Sleep 6 hours a day. Eat all 3 meals in a total of 1 hour. Go to the gym for 2 hours. That still leaves you with 15 hours a day.
Use those 15 hours to consistently work on something meaningful. Cut the friends for one year, cut those girls for one year. Stop people pleasing for one year.
Use ChatGPT to help you. Buy the premium version. I’m pretty sure you didn’t approach YouTube correctly. Start again with that. Follow some free courses. There are even nulled versions available online if money is tight.
Gain more knowledge. Fine-tune your process. Start putting in real work.
Learn AI. Start offering AI-based services to people. Build a brand around your knowledge. Use Twitter, Facebook, Instagram. Post your work, share results, show progress. Build small tools using that knowledge. People will start hiring you. That’s how you grow by doing real, focused work, not by jumping from one thing to another without depth.
