Hello, from Romania!
First I would love to start with saying that I love this forum and its active side and members. That's what I was seeking this time. A community of proactive entrepreneurs to aid my journey. Maybe I can make a few friends too, because, as you may know, entrepreneurship is kind of lonely .
But enough with the sad stuff. I invite you to my short version of my entrepreneurship journey.
When I was little I was never kind of a social guy but not an introvert either. I was just between extroverted and introverted. I wasn't really interested in entrepreneurship or never had any passion for selling, I was kind of silver spooned or spoiled too by my family, so I never had to struggle for anything.
I was average at school, getting average grades, I was gaming hard (around 7 hours average) every day, and I was fat because I was sedentary.
That behavior of me held until I was 17.
When I was on a holiday with my friends that I had back then, I smoked some weed like every other teenager, and I was hit hard by a wave of anxiety. That was my first panic attack.
From then I developed severe panic attacks that kept boggling my life. I couldn't even take public transportation, I was scared that I was dying.
Went to the doctors, no health problem.
THEN, I dove into personal development head on. I surrounded myself with self-development books and took action. Applied everything and I was trying to optimize my life. Every day I was feeling better and stronger with the proper and normal setbacks from time to time.
At that time I realized that if I would work enclosed into an office, that would be the death of me and that would stop me to have the freedom I always craved for.
Fast forward to now, 22 years old, I developed an even deeper passion and proactiveness for business and helping people. Had 3 businesses that generated me some money but after some time failed.
I would love to learn from your stories, help and give value here and there where I see that I fit.
I am sorry for the long post, I haven't revealed my life story to a mass audience like this, but, I trust this community so this made me open myself.
TL;DR: I was struck by panic attacks that developed into a general anxiety disorder, I healed myself without taking medication, diving head-on into self-development and being proactive and positive.
By that time I decided to live my life free of "The boss" or "The J.O.B". So I persevered and had 3 businesses that ultimately failed.
