Hello there!
Confused 17yo here!
Long story short:
I'm having a little too many FTMs piling up.
And I'm really considering to COMMIT.
The reason why I haven't took action yet is because
The pleasure I am feeling right now
Outweighs the pain needed
To take action and to get meteoric pleasure.
I don't know if that made sense.
The goal:
Freedom,
Make something, a job / activity / specialized unit.
That will fuel my monthly expenses.
( Of course through giving value )
I really don't have any monthly expenses yet.
( But I also don't have any sort of cashflow
so no freedom )
After considering my options:
Freelancing,
Offline work,
Making an app / software ...
I noticed that
I didn't really have the domain experience required to find needs and how to solve them.
So I looked locally and checked what I was spending on real life.
I noticed that every Friday,
I would grill some pork belly for my family for Friday dinner.
I noticed that maybe my local community would also like to have a Friday night dinner feast.
I don't really know wether the market will like it or not.
Now,
I'm really considering on going with this small bet.
And is really better that sitting on my butt all day doing nothing.
The plan:
Pre-sell -> asses -> continue or quit depending on market response
I'm currently writing this to get feedback.
Maybe what I'm doing is all wrong.
Or I should do X first.
Or that there's a better process to this.
Or maybe not thinking about something.
Or maybe just overthinking it.
Any feedback / nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!
