Hey there guys. Someone accurately suggested that i should introduce myself here so here i am.
I'm a not-so-young-about-to-turn 24 in 5 days guy and read TMFL about 1 month ago. I'm from Mexico, and i've "already" have bought my freedom (to me that means i can cover my basic needs without needing to work, actually not amazing at all if you consider how much life costs here), i've never had an ambition for cars, neither for houses, shinny stuff or sugary/fast food (funny thing is i've never tried a big mac lol) but yeah i think it's cool to have that stuff if you can afford it (but not letting it define you).
The thing is well .... i'm 24!
...And i can't take settling for this. I mean, if i was 60 i'll probably be very damn done but at 24 i want to see where i can end up putting my effort into this!!!.
This urgency started the moment i realized everybody on the street had either an angry/zombie face (to be fair not everybody, but most) and another wake up call the moment i tried to give some advice to a buddy of mine to replicate my bussines and he declined the moment something went "theoretically" wrong in his head.
It may be just me, but i have an edgy personality i would say, and i only feel alive when i'm moving forward, that's why i joined this forum. MJs story about eating cheap pasta at the cost of learning to do something bigger really resonated with me. I did the same living in a 5x3 room with no beds with other 3 dudes, eating just eggs and sometimes nothing just because we had the vision that we could do something with quality and something that would be of value to people.
I'd love to meet like minded people, as for now, i aim to do the copywriting/web design journey. Already got down the edit html templates last week and this one im learning bootstrap. This week i'll probably go and find work in upwork. The next thing is to find another need that needs to be solved, i think i'll find it as i keep working and learning.
Thank you very much for reading guys.
