27 Years Old Leaving Addiction Behind, Finally Taking Action

[Phineas J.]

I've had a fascination with entrepreneurship since high school. I always loved reading stories about successful business owners and the paths they took to succeed. I would lose myself in them, dreaming about one day getting up off my a$$ and doing something like that.

However, I also lost myself in an addiction to alcoholism, and am committed to recovering from it. My life has been on hold up until when I recently just quit.

A few months ago, I found this forum. I bought and read both the books, and since then haven't been able to stop THINKING about entrepreneurship.

I read a few of the GOLD threads, and decided to pursue the "15 Days to Freedom" copywriting thread from @SinisterLex as a point to start taking real action. I really want to learn how to sell, as it seems like the most important skill set for an entrepreneur to have based on what I've read this far on the forum. Thanks for letting me share.
