Not focused enough

[zion]

Hey guys,

There are many things i am interested in:

Music: had some releases on music labels
Programming: Rich Internet Clients (Angular/Flex) as my current profession as an employee (project leader and developer).
Poker: Wanted to do it on a professional level, but decided to be an employee LOL
Anyway i played the World Series in Vegas last year, which was my dream since i started playing

So in everything i am interested in i am "ok" and have some success because i am a quick learner, but it's far far away from making a living driving the fastlane.

My problem is: It's hard for me to focus on one thing and keep track...ok it's even harder to find a business idea...

So, how do you know what you are doing is THE THING (if something like that exists), when you never made a fastlane-living from that?
How do you stay focused?

I have saved $10k while my friends bought cars, playstations and rent bigger appartments, but they just seem more happy, healthier and have the good looking girls.

I can't lie to myself, my live sucks, because there always was this big need to make something beautiful with my live and stay away from the average bs and social brainwashing, but i seriously can't get started.

Ok, now whining is over...

My first goal is to find something that pays better than my normal job (since online poker is dead this would'nt be an option), so i can quit and have more time to focus on the fastlane.

I know, these are not the "best" questions, but maybe there is something to learn.

I am looking forward for any advice or if you have a business idea, looking for a partner who has frontend skills...


Thanks, Alex (from Germany)
