I'm currently 23 years old. Long story short, I'm f*cked up as of right now, suffering from general anxiety, social anxiety, and depression. I dropped out of HS years ago because I was heavily abused by my father during my childhood. School teachers started abusing me, telling the class I'm always sleeping (because my dad would beat me all night) That I use drugs, and it became a negative environment and even after seeking help, I had to step away, leaving me with no choices. Parents divorced years ago, and I am SOMEWHAT better now. My only problem is I don't know what I want to do. I've been looking into programming/hacking whenever I'm not working. I currently work as a Mechanic, and I'm scared this is all I'm good for. I want to work from home, or at least land an office job. I want to change my life, go from living a shitty one, to living a fun and manageable. I was born to live the free life. Not be stuck paying debt, and being down because I suffer from something that wasn't even my fault. It sure feels like the world is against me, and I can't do anything. I'm F*cking 23 with a dead end job. I'm not asking for your secret methods, but any advice to kick start my dreams? I don't have many skills, besides Gaming, SOME programming, and basic basic hacking skills. I'm 100% familiar with Windows, everything about Windows, and computers/components.
What can I do? What should I look into? Could you guys please help point me in the right direction? I don't mind learning anything. Some more info, I've been looking into investing $500-1k into a drop shipping business. I'm not expecting to become rich over night, but I'd love to work towards something.
Say I do find something. Maybe continue learning programming. What could I do to make starting $? Again not after millions off the bat, but I'd love to start generating some coin to live on. Not sure when that'll happen, or what level of programming you'd need a minimum in. I make $2k every month from work. I have 0 bills and I don't mind investing all of that money into ideas and possible businesses.
Also I'm not seeking pity for what I've been through, it is what it is, and I can only get passed it now.
On the real Entrepreneur side, I do have a handful of good ideas if that would be anything for me.
My interests are:
Tech
Computers
Building computers
Programming
Hacking
Pretty much ANYTHING computer/tech related.
I am VERY tired of living at home at 23, my mom struggles paying the bills, and I have a horrible paying job. My true goal is to give back to my mom what she gave to me, life. I want to be able to buy her a nice house, gifts etc. I want to be the father who can provide for my children some time in the future.
I just want to thank all of you, even if you don't reply and just read it. Thank you so much for helping me figure out my life, and what path is right for me.
SORRY THIS IS ALL OVER THE PLACE. Was just jotting down ideas. Thank you!~
Also, in NO WAY am I asking anyone to feed me their secret ideas/methods. NO way do I expect that.
