Hi all,
Looking to get out of the grind like anyone sane would and feel the time is now, I hope.
Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda....Should have been into this years ago when I was trying to get into the e-commerce game with Alibaba (I was fixed on trying to sell maize milling plants to Zimbabwe lol) but growing up in a third world country didn't help (no money = no bank account = no card and most importantly, no one that had these and would trust me with these crazy ideas at the time - believe me I tried).
The only solution was to just hit the books and do school, this did not turn out too bad so I am not complaining.
Now, I got a decent paying job, savings getting ahead, etc but hours are crazy, its a high sales job so the stress is crazy as well and I am working my ass off for a paycheck while the owner makes bank and I realised I'm definitely doing something wrong in life and this owner has the game figured...
So here I am, reading, reading and reading to hopefully get myself somewhere out of this bonded slavery of fulltime employment, lifetime mortgage, pension, etc
I need to just get my head screwed on right, my honest problem (that I have only just begun to accept and start working on) is that I am a bit of a perfectionist and this prevents me from executing so I am working hard on this - we are our own worst enemy.
So all in all, I need to get my shit together and feel that this is a journey I can start here.
Thanks.
