My name is Barbara, I'm 55, I'm from Italy and I'm here because I'm reading @MJ DeMarco first book and watched his videos on youtube, in the hope of having the enlightenment I need to make a financial impact on my life.
I worked as employee for 20 years, than I left my "slowlane" to work to my ecommerce which was successful at first, but then failed miserably. I was not prepared to handle that large flow of money and the lack of entrepreneurial knowledge + taxes + increased competition made me fail. Also, I've recently realized that I was a sidewalker at that time.
At the moment I have a remote job as internet safety rater but I'm also a webmaster and indipendent publisher. Unfortunately, despite the fact that my work commitment is constant, and that I keep studying and reading and acting toward my goals, I barely reach the minimum to contribute decently to the family budget and I'm starting to feel tired and I suspect to have a limited mindset in the sense that deep inside I think I don't deserve to earn a lot of money.
I'm grateful to have found MJ and his forum and I'm just sorry I didn't read it a few years ago, but better late than never. Greetings to all! (And excuse me for the maccaroni english
)
