Everytime I post I feel ignorant and dumb, because it feels like there's some kind of information or action that is obvious to others but that I'm completely oblivious to.
I've seen that value is the way to any kind of success, and that the point isn't to make money but to help, to provide to others, but I'm completely blind to the needs of others.
I've lived my entire life as a hardcore consumer, everything is focused around me me me, and I have no idea on how to break out of this mindset, to start looking at others and see ideas and ways to relieve people of their pains.
Even this post could be considered just another lashing out of the consumer mindset, but still, knowing that's the case I still remain blinded.
I've tried something and I'll keep going at it, because it kind of is providing value, but the amount of value it provides is so miniscule and has very little hypothesis of actually scaling up that at this point it's just something I'm doing in order to say I'm doing, but the thing is that I'll just go back to the same thing of saying "oh I don't know how to provide value" or "I don't have any ideas" or any of the other thousand excuses I could come up with.
I've gotten some ideas on past things I could do, but all of them seem like things that aren't applicable in my country, there's no lawns to clean up, no garage sales to flip or any other thing, but the thing is if I just keep asking for ideas I'm just helping the symptoms, and not fixing the actual underlying issue.
