17 Year Old Looking To Move Into The Fastlane

[Jamie1]

Hi everyone, I'm 17 years old from the UK and I am 100% positive that I want to become an entrepreneur. The idea of a 9-5 is something I can't see myself being able to live with. I already knew this before, but after having read TMF and UNSCRIPTED it definitely caused me to have a mentality shift and think "What am I doing, really?"

I know I'm still young and there isn't necessarily a rush to get started but I've only recently started thinking about how much time I am wasting sitting around playing video games and watching pointless YouTube videos.

My problem is, I feel like I have a lot of motivation but just don't know what to put it into. I've found that in the past I struggle to stay motivated with things that I don't at least somewhat enjoy.

Currently, I am running a YouTube channel with a friend and, while it's growing at a nice rate, it takes about 2 hours of my time each day to maintain. This leaves me sitting around procrastinating on YouTube or playing video games for the remaining ~8 hours of the day.

I feel like I need to start something that I have an interest in to be able to consistently work on it at a standard that I am happy with. However my interests really only go as far as video games and football (soccer). Needless to say, they are both highly saturated niches that I would probably need some capital to invest if I even want a chance of it working out. I am also interested in crypto and have a basic understanding of blockchain - this has led to me investing some capital into 2 cryptocurrencies that I have a lot of faith in.

Maybe it's analysis paralysis. Maybe I think I am motivated but in reality, when it comes to actually executing the ideas, I'm not. I'm fully aware that I should probably just bite the bullet and start working on something, regardless of whether or not I enjoy it. However I've tried this before and I have some trouble with sticking at it. I don't really know where to turn at the moment and was wondering if anyone has gone through anything similar to this. Thanks in advance.
