I think it's wise to take stock of your situation and like the questions Alexkuzmo asked along with: "Do you believe it's possible to get the income you need from the business you're trying to build?" More information will allow us to give you more...

    Is who you know overrated?

    QUESTION MEETUPS 
    Build relationships and a network as you go by being authentic and helpful. Be careful who you hang out with. Find other fastlaners. I often hear people use the lack of a network and knowing the "right people" as an excuse for not moving forward. It's absolutely possible to succeed from...

    Maybe you could share the message you are sending? We might be able to help fine tune it. Are you using Instagram to directly sell or are you hoping to get leads from your contacts? Do you have past work you can share with potential clients? The test task sounds hopeful- knock it out of the...

    Info businesses are great but you have to have something they can't get from someone already established in your target market. What stopping you from reaching your financial goals with the startup?

    BOOKS 
    100% this ^^ It's easy to fall into the trap of accumulating knowledge and not building your business. Decide what you need to know to take step one and two, learn it and implement it and move again.

    Complicated interpersonal relationships.

    MINDSET 
    I think you might be expecting too much. What are you bringing to them? Successful people are busy and not necessarily able or willing to help everyone who reaches out to them. I don't have the context so I don't know what you are doing or expecting. Find ways to get to know the people you are...

    Does having a polarizing personality/character affect success in a sales job?

    MARKETING 
    What makes you unlikable? I second what's already been said especially "it's not about you it's about the people you are serving" You need to look presentable and show up on time. You have to know the product you are selling well and what problem/s it solves. Then you are asking lots of...

    Struggling to find product-market fit for a web app how did you guys solve a lack of product-market fit for your product?

    EXECUTION FEEDBACK 
    Do you know what specially people mean when they say "it's really tough to plan the trip"? The information you have isn't enough to build a business around. Get really clear about what their problem is and then provide a simple easy to use solution. Maybe look at train travel? I definitely find...
