How hard is it?

[GabrielDC]

Hello everyone, first of all I must apologize for my bad english, I am Italian, migrated to Germany( due to the terrible situation in Italy).

I looked deeply in the forum before writing this, and I couldn't find anything about this topic
(If I haven't looked deep enough, please let me know).

As a relatively young man, like a lot of people out there I think I have ''THE IDEA''.
The problem is, I came from a traditional italian family, so:
study, get a good job, marry in your hometown and stay close to the family.

It was very hard for me to just leave everything behind and start my new journey, but somehow I managed to do it.

One day, after coming home from my dead end job, I sitted in my armchair, reading Rich father, Poor father by Robert Kiyosaki, and an idea came up in my mind.

It has nothing to do with buildings and stock options, but after a lot of researches I decided to bring this idea to life.

But I don't really know where to start.
I know I need a database style website, but I don't know how to register a mark or wich hosting suits better for me.

Any toughts?

nobody knows where to start until they start...

www.namecheap.com get a domain and hosting from there, its my preferred choice.

You probably want your own business hosting account so you have direct database access, then use MYSQL or something to manage it. It's up to you. There are tons of ways to do this, and only you can figure out the answer.

Then there are things like this:

https://www.heroku.com/ That manage the database portion etc for you.

One step at a time, don't worry about step two until you have step one sorted.

If you get stuck on a step, research it, or hire someone if it's super technical.

You will be running before you know it, good luck!

I hope so, sometimes I think that I'm already too old to start, even if I just turned 24.
I think the hardest thing is to accept that everything that came before is now useless for me, and for the road that I'm choosing.

Before jumping in to your plan I'd recommend reading The Millionaire Fastlane . I hear it's pretty well received here. It will give you a better understanding and a better chance for success.

To answer your subject, it's hard, very hard actually. That's why only a small percentage of people are fastlaners.

As for being too old to start at 24 loll that was joke right?

Where to start? You've come to the right place. Start searching, reading (gold threads), read the book. They have one in Italian as well so you can better understand it. We're not sure what your starting so it's tough to define "where to start". If your building an ecomm store, you can do wordpress with woocommerce, magenta, shopify (most popular). If you just want to get a website up and running, then you need to register a domain - google domains or namecheap are good. Hosting; hostgator and bluehost are good options.

First step is making sure your idea fulfills a need.

Validate your website idea before you waste resources on development.

Use the feedback to refine and adjust your product/service.

There are many resources available on how to validate your website idea (YouTube, udemy.com etc.)

Have you ever heard of the shoe/clothing brand Nike?


The founder was a kid your age, with a "crazy idea". He presented his "crazy idea" about selling athletic shoes to his business class in college, and no one was impressed. He had no idea how to proceed with his crazy idea, and no one supported him going after it. He just tried things and figured it out as he went along.


The fact is, a lot of people don't know what they are doing. They are making it up as they go along. The ones who succeed are the ones who try hard enough to figure it out.

Yes, I know lots of stories like this.. but my biggest problem is going out the italian mindset I think, I'm working on it.

Daily action creates success. Do something to build your business every day.

Success will fix your mindset quickly. Until you see some success, your idea is just an idea, and you will always be looking over your shoulder, wondering if you should turn around and go back to the "safe" mindset in which you were brought up.

Rich Dad Poor Dad is a good start. Now invest $15 to buy and read Millionaire Fastlane . It will explain a lot, and you will understand the people and ideas on this website better.

Nonsense. Ray Kroc was 52 when he started McDonald's. It's never too late to start. Just take it one baby step at a time and just get started somewhere.

Before you go ahead and spend a lot of time and money on building this software though, I would recommend asking your target market if this would be something they would buy, or would solve a problem for them.

My thoughts are that you are lying. You know exactly where to start.

I need a database style website - Google Search

how to register a mark - Google Search

wich hosting suits better for me - Google Search

It took me 20 seconds to answer these "insurmountable" problems that were keeping you from starting, I even left your misspelling intact for the last one, and Google was still smart enough to find you a gazillion links answering your question. Anything else you want someone else to do for you, or are you done with the excuses?

Wow, disregard my previous message, I didn't know you were that old. It's much harder for people in your age bracket of 20-25, but anything is possible.
