I will start off by saying that this is NOT a positive post, but at the very least I haven’t given up yet on my dreams.
I scrolled through and found a post about a guy named Kelsey, who became millionaire at 19. Then the self defeating feeling came about when I saw he started at 17.
I also started my journey at 17. Bought many courses (WSO), applied some, had email marketing list, was making apps which netted some passive income but gave it up after talking to dad.
I was still scripted and parents pushe the college route. 1-2 years on standby while in the meantime I was selling fake ids and drugs in my dorm. Not the cleanest but made some money to live.
Eventually I woke up and decided to learn all skills I could. Big mistake. I had no idea and wasted so much time on stupid shit like social media “strategy”, SQL, Java, even took calculus course online. Just wasted tine I might have as well spent watching TV. I was being a F*cking idiot
Then I spent 8k witth a guru to learn sales, put myself into debt that now I can’t get more if needed. F*cking stupid a$$ mistake. Should have spent the 8k on a product .
In terms of action, I’ve probably cold callled over 5000 people, (100,000+ dials), ran 100+ marketing campaigns. Yet I undervalued the tuck out of myself.
I’m 22 still in school and honestly don’t have shit to many name besides debt. I have NEVER in my life made more than $3000 a month, despite taking massive risks, moving to another state, making cold calls and selling even $700,000 in products. Still never made more than 3k. I still depend on mom for living and even putting gas in my car.
I’m trying not to think too much and keep taking action on some food and supplement products I am working on, but I can’t help but deep down feel like it’s a waste of time and I need to be realistic and get a job. My family is constantly trying to push me into network marketing and I’m startint to crack for the first time in years.
I don’t know exactly the reason or what I’m lacking. Maybe I genuinely don’t have the desire to succeed. Idk. I will say, my biggest F*cking regret is spending money on courses and training. I should have put it all on the line for F*cking products or marketing myself.
I don’t expect any changes to come from your comments if I even get any. I just started day with a f*cked up mindset. But sometimes got to change or I will never achieve more. I’m so sick of busting my a$$ for scraps.
So any advice that might help me see that is appreciated.
