I'm 26, Mechanical Engineer working in Oil & Gas. I make good living, but that's not where I would love to be. I believe that one day, I will be free to decide who I want to devote my day, be it my family, friends, business, etc. Or even if it's far from possible (but I strongly believe that it is), at least not be forced to downgrade life standards to meet needs of life (house, car, education for kids, travel, etc).
I've tried becoming Entrepreneur a few times in past. I was student back then, overloaded with university work anyway. Had neither resources, nor experience to overcome problems I faced and failed greatly. A lot of hours of work, thousands of dollars thrown into trash?! Well, I believe that I got valuable experience from these and learnt what not to do. After all, what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.
I've been working on some ideas to change my life, but was overwhelmed by the amount of research I need to do at some point and decided to take some break. Then I found this forum with all the knowledge-base it presents. Time to read, research and start off what I've been working on for so long. I'm sure knowledge from the book and experience of this forum will greatly enhance my chances to succeed.
Cheers.
