I read the Fastline book during my service in the military, and decided to join the forum because I did want to become an entrepreneur someday.
But after I got discharged and went back to school, I forgot all about it.
Then, just a few days ago, I got an Email from the forum saying 'You haven't visited in a while', and decided to come by.
I was having a lot of trouble with how I wanted to live my life and how I was actually going to live my life, wracking my brain over it and getting stressed out for the last several months. I choose mechanical engineering as a major because I didn't know what I wanted to do, and at the time, mechanical engineering seemed like the subject that would offer me the widest range of choice latter on. Two years into studying it however, I figured working with it for the next twenty-thirty years would be a boring life. The subject is hard, but that I can manage. But it's just seriously boring. And I don't see any other choice than working either in a factory or a laboratory for the rest of my life after graduating, and that doesn't seem like a life I want to have.
The dream of wanting to start my own business hasn't died yet, it's just that I haven't got the faintest clue how.
I haven't got an ideas on what to start my business on, and I don't even have an idea on how to get an idea on what to start my business on.
So.... I'm pretty much stuck at the starting line right now.
Hoping to find some answers here.
