This question is aimed more at the people who have already achieved noteworthy success in a field.
I read A LOT of books related to business and finance. I listen to podcast all the time (Recently I have been listening to some of Mj's interviews and youtube) I read blogs (Like Mark Cuban) I'd say at minimum I spend 12 hours a day just learning s**** relevant to business. Some days I even read two books and take notes on them. I studied 14 hours a day and taught myself JavaScript in one week (The fundamentals) I have learned a good amount of information, but while useful, I feel it is too broad. I also have nothing tangible to apply that knowledge to.
I want to be focused on one single industry and kick a** at it. If I spent the 12 hours a day learning I do now on one single focus I feel I would be able to do so much more and I could actually start producing tangible results. I would be able to analyze one specific industry and identify opportunities with it.
I feel that my biggest issue is that I can not choose a industry to jump into for various reasons.
So for all of you successful fastlaners out there, how did you choose your industry?
Were you searching for a need and found one? Then jumped into the industry?
Or did you already have a set industry and then you found needs within it?
Should I stop analyzing and just say f*** it and jump into something and give it my all?
And what advice would you give to someone in my situation?
Thanks for any and all insights.
