Hello fellow fastlaners,
My name is Matt. I'm a 20 year old from Boston, Mass. I'm living with my parents at the moment. I withdrew from university a few years ago because I wanted to have a fire burning under my a$$ knowing that Entrepreneurship is all I have and will ever believe in. That's the soft way to say it. Truth is, I couldn't relate to anyone there and I felt like if I finish the 4 years my brain would be indoctrinated. I will not be capable to free thinking.
I still believe in my choice and entrepreneurship. It's the only thing that's keeping me up at night even though I'm not making much money from it in the meantime.
I "actively", more like half-a$$, pursue financial freedom for around 2 years now. I would pick a venture up and drop them half way, especially when I make a few hundred bucks and see some difficulties. If I stayed with one thing long enough, I know I'd have something to my name. I believe it has a lot of do with self-doubt and not knowing what I really want that I dropped these ventures. That couple with living with my parents is a recipe for self defeat. I was depressed and lost in a spiral of negativity due to the constant cycle of picking something up and dropping them in the year 2020-early 2022.
I'm still figuring things out day by day, but it was not until about 4-5 months ago that I started to envision a better life again and got to know myself.
My body has changed and so too has my mindset as a result, if ever so slightly. I'm less harsh on myself now and I demand higher standards from my day to day actions.
Currently I'm building up a personal brand with my previous skills in editing & research. It's not something I expect to be reward anytime soon, so I will hustle to build up some cash on the side. On my walls, I am reminded that I will personally kick myself out of my parents house by the end of 2023. Whatever it takes, I will become self-sufficient.
I hope to post on here, connect, and learn from you all. Thanks for reading.
