Hello guys,
here I'm - 37y.o dude currently living in the Netherlands as an expat.
Over the years, I've built myself a decent career and salary in the digital industry, but I've always wanted more. Sometimes, I feel like there is something wrong with myself, a lot of people would feel super successful in my position, but I don't feel like this is making me happy.
I'm thinking about quitting and starting to scratch with something MINE.
Hard to say why I feel like that, I guess there are 2 main reasions:
- I grew up playing semi-professional sport in my home country (and getting paid for it), in a quite competitive environment
- built some succcessful side projects earlier in my career: there is nothing nicer than seeing money coming in when you are the owner. I've also tried to go all in a few years back but didn't work well, and I had to go back to the corporate ladder after a year.
The lack of freedom (where to live, what to do) is the main reason i'm into this. I can of course change job and go pretty much where I want to in Europe/Asia/etc, but I would still depend on someones else decisions and script.
I'm not interested in entrepreneurship to make more money (although it would be nice to), but more for the challenge and to be free.
Hope to connect with like minded people over here, and find some motivation to get started again
