I have to tell you the experience frightens me, you need to have a breakdown of a unique background of this situation. I am turning 21, I am on my 1st year of college, my first job experience has been a gogo dancer (because it's lucrative), all my friends went to study abroad (like literally all of them), I am about to drop the position that I have now and a guaranteed $5000 paycheck for a variety of reasons... ego, cant deal with bosses (not like they can stand me), just all around I feel the more I fulfill somebody's elses agendas the more I move away from mine; feelings of running on a treadmill; I can make infinitely more myself...
I just got really comfortable with what I have now but I know this is not the way to go, because I wont move any FURTHER even if Im good now and not realizing the visions that I had for my life as a child is something I can't even fathom.
I am especially frightened by visions of how at this point after high school and everything NOBODY GIVES A F*ck about what you're gonna do with your life and where you're gonna end up, so you respond only to yourself.
I have a bit of a bodybuilding background and I think there's a common link between this and entrepreneurship, because also nobody is standing above you with a leash to sculpt and push yourself, yet you do this because the motivation is in place.
I have a plethora of ideas plus a small business background/experience I had as a teen, seemingly easy to get capital for the endeavors, some formal knowledge, there's really nothing lack for me to be successful yet I am so frightened.
It's not fear of failure even, just this uncertainty, chaos, those feelings have to do with entering adulthood in general.
Twist to the story is that I've been contemplating full on entrepreneurship for a while now, but at this point I WILL HAVE TO move on because of my mother's financial problems, she won't be able to support me anymore.
I don't have anybody in my family who's an entrepreneurship to give me support.
How you say I cope with this? I think it's a general question to all people who moved from posts to founding their own companies, preferrably in a young age.
