Hey guys!

I am thinking of making a big personal and career leap and would love to hear your opinions. Just to paint a better picture of my personality, I am an INTJ.

What is My Plan?

I am planning of dedicating my entire time to Digital Marketing by concentrating on SEO and AdWords. Currently, I possess a basic knowledge of Digital Marketing - for this reason I have reached out onto my potential mentor who is probably going to provide me with some Digital Marketing learning experience in exchange of free labor. On top of that, I have bought multiple books, subscribed to multiple blogs, audio materials and some Digital Marketing online courses.

What is My Goal?

My core goal is to provide remote Digital Marketing services. I don't mind if it's an employer or just a gig on Odesk - all that matters to me is that there's no daily commuting involved. So, to put it simply, I am planning to learn Digital Marketing and turn it into a remote career. When working from home I am always in a flow, can optimize my time a lot better due to less distractions and less empty conversations with co-workers and am able to produce a lot better results in general.

What Happened to My Entrepreneurial Journey?

In a way I see it as an entrepreneurial journey in itself, because by working from home I will have a lot more of personal space, freedom and less micro-management.

Within one year I have launched 4 different businesses. Two of them have failed without any major casualties, but one of them (an on-demand alcohol delivery app) has resulted in a low five figure loss; nonetheless I have managed to compensate that loss by selling fourth business that has been acquired for mid five figures. To be honest, I am brutally burned out and want to try something entirely different.

At the moment I have enough savings and income streams to sustain myself for the next 5 years or so... - Thanks to my minimalist lifestyle and appreciation of small things.
