Hi everyone,
I'm 24 years old, I'm creating my company and I just joined the community. I quit my job one year ago to pursue my dream to be entrepreneur and financially independent, and I've never felt lonelier.
I come from a family of public teachers, the only fact that I quit my 3000-euros-per-month job is incomprehensible for them. I can't seem to do anything else than justifying myself and explaining my choice over and over again at family dinners.
I live with my boyfriend, who has done a business school and aims to get a high-paid job in a multinational company. His family has the same mindset: big studies, big jobs, and big salaries in big companies. According to his parents, he should do anything to have a good resume.
I work from home, so I spend most of my day alone, sitting at a table and working on my computer.
I do not have any friend who has the same mindset as me; everyone goes to school, everyone applies for jobs, everyone follows the scripted-life who has been written for them.
I have a dream that I would one day represent the entrepreneurial success in my country - France. I come from a family without any money, my father killed himself when I was a child, my grandpa who raised me died of cancer when I was 18. I used to live in a studio with my mom and the first bedroom I ever had was at age 16. I want to become a millionnaire, to live in a house in the mountains and have a residence at the Cap d'Antibes where my grandpa used to take me in car, I want to give money to families in difficulty and use my time to go on humanitarian missions, instead of spending it working until I'm 60 years old.
But, I cannot talk about any of this to anyone, as everybody will think I'm dreaming and ask me to come down to earth.
I have absolutely no idea who to talk to - I feel overwhelmed by my own determination who has to stay inside of me and cannot go out to make me happy.
I started to feel depressed a few months ago; and it's starting to impact my work. I used to be the most motivated person everywhere I would be, and now I find it hard to find a reason to wake up every morning.
I read the Millionnaire Fastlane, and I decided to join the community, hoping I could meet some people who have big dreams and aren't afraid to expose it to the eyes of the world !
Hope to get in touch with a few people,
Emma
