As I start writing this, I'm not sure if this is a question or just a rant, but there it goes...
I've always said to myself and others that my goal is to become an entrepeneur. But this year I turned 30 and I still have nothing to show for it.
I have a somewhat successful slowlane career in the Financial Planning and Analysis field. I don't hate it, but I know it's not what I want to do for the rest of my life. I half a$$ it most of the time, but they are somehow still happy with my performance.
I own two apartments: one I rent, and the other I recently bought it to live in. With the rent from the first one I pay both mortgages and I still have a little bit left over.
I have a couple of good friends and a family that loves me, but I still feel very lonely all the time.
By most societal standards I have a sucessful life, but I am not happy at all. I've been telling to myself that I would be happy once I am an entrepreneur, but if I'm honest with myself I don't think that's the root of my unhappiness.
I have no desire to take my life, but I want often wonder what's is the point of it all. I feel like I don't have a purpose and I'm surviving life rather than living it.
After reading TFM, Unscripted and plenty of other books, I've been thinking a lot about what kind of venture could I start. Where can I provide value. I managed to think of a few a ideas, but nothing worth pursuing. It's like I have no passion for anything. I feel F*cking worthless.
I've now realized that before I start any business I need to work on myself. I have a very toxic attitude towards myself and that's most likely what's making me unhappy. If I am unable to love myself, it's unlikely someone else will.
I already exercise and try to eat healthy, but then what? How does one find their passion? How do you find purpose in life?
