I have trouble making money as an Entrepreneur

[Crissco]

As I sit here in a sober house with 15 other people on a rainy and windy Tuesday night before the holidays. Im sitting here thinking. I have trouble making money as an entrepreneur. Yes i have had some successes with website design, freelace web design. I honestly think it comes down to me giving up. I have a problem with "if it doesnt work in less than a week" I partially push it aside to go back to it later. The only thing i have stuck with is websites and coding to a degree. I have also had jobs at agencies before too. But as a business owner i am really struggling. I do do well in jobs yes, it gives me structure, a reason to wake up, forces me to learn a skill and get moving for the day. But I dont want to be that guy thats stuck in a job with the positiblity of getting fired (again). Sure, a business can fail and go bankrupt but if I have a good savings I would rather that. I've been trying for 10 years to create a great scalable idea. I think i came up with some good ones but I never had the skillset(computer programming with a high level language) to complete them, or even the money to outsource and hire a developer. I have the time to make it work this time, no time constraints since im in the sober hour. I have 3 months until I can either get a job, or go to school for a computer programming bootcamp(my choice).

In my situation what steps would you take so you can make something out of your life at 36 years old? Minset, business, money, networking...etc
