Hi could I ask for some advice on a new job decision?

I’m an aspiring entrepreneur and have been a PT for 10 years but dropped out and now looking for another industry that can make me money and hopefully lead to freedom.

I have applied to be a sales negotiator at an estate agents, I have skills in sales and planning on improving with research and studying to then hit massive commission. To then hopefully buy and rent out property and becoming financially free.

However I struggle with the work life balance of a 9-5, it causes me to have mental breakdowns as I feel like I’m in prison and can’t escape which then leads to my eating disorder coming back into place as well as drugs and alcohol to then eventually calling sick days at work until I get sacked.

I wish I was less emotional and could purely focus on working hard for at least a year, (sacrifice freedom to get freedom in the long run kind of thing) is there any advice anyone can give me that would help?
