Formula to wake up in your 60s and think "what have I done with my life"
Start something you love:
-no, look at businesses in your country, people making toilet paper, aluminum things, matches, plastic bags. You think they love to do toilet paper?
The biggest mistake is "make what you love" or "make money on passion".
You know what is my passion? Playing in Dayz, fishing, cars. Not sticking on BHW or doing blackhat things. I am here, because I must. I do job, then repeat without emotions.
Ad 1. no, in current world you are not saving problems. You are selling dreams and emotions, not problem solving. This can be good for b2b type, where you truly solving problems and building reputation. With b2c nobody will thank you for anything or pay anything more than he must.
Ad 2. it's true, repeat daily tasks and focus on process
