Is it possible?
I can't get rid of the burning idea in my head that it is possible to become free. To own my own business or even freelance, to be able to travel, to be able to live in Peru for a month, to study traditional medicine in China, to do a weeklong retreat of silent meditation somewhere, to eat healthy.
But yet I feel so trapped. I make $10 an hour and am about to graduate with a Bachelor's in Psychology. I have no idea what to do, where to go, how to make this happen. I've read lots of books, 4-Hour Workweek, Education of Millionaires, etc. but yet I just don't know where to begin. I feel as though I am the only one who wants this, maybe I need a new circle of friends. I feel the pressure of money everyday.
The one thing I guess I have is age. I am only 22 years old. I don't want this post to sound like an emotional outcry (maybe it is) but I am sure there must be people on here that just couldn't take their current situation anymore and that is what caused them to make the leap.
I need someone to tell me it is possible to achieve this dream. If anyone has any guidance, that would be appreciated. I am serious about doing whatever it takes. I would sell everything I own and relocate if I had to to make it happen.
