Tired of being a do-nothing loser
I'm sorry if the title is a bit harsh, but this is where I'm at. I've read numerous books including Rich Dad, Poor Dad, David Greene's books as well as others. I do everything I can to soak up the knowledge, but then it just stops. I just can't seem to figure out how to actually take the first steps. I get so caught up in the whole process I never end up going anywhere. A large portion of this is fear. Fear that I might not be good at it. Fear that I might be good at it, but don't deserve success. Stupid reasons when all is said and done.
I make a good living at my current job, but I absolutely hate working for someone else. I get no fulfillment whatsoever and during the pandemic I've learned that being around family and having flexibility of schedule is more important to me than anything. Even though I've proven to my organization that I can work well and thrive from home, they don't care and want me back in the office soon because they don't trust us to actually do our jobs from home (despite having done it for almost 2 years now). I'm tired of being treated that way from people who have outdated views on how things should be done. I really want to succeed this time. I want to take those steps I was too afraid to take last time.
I'd love to find a coach or mentor that can actually hold my hand and get me started on my journey so I can learn that it's not as scary as my mind is making it out to be. In the past I felt too proud to ask for help, but this time I'm doing so. I need to take those first steps so I can begin to build a life of wealth. I understand it's not an overnight process, but the longer I keep being too scared to take that first step the longer my dreams will take to be fulfilled. The thought of working for myself makes me feel alive. Sorry for the boring rant, I just figured if anyone else was feeling that way I'd let you know you're not alone.
If anyone has recommendations for coaches or mentors please let me know. I'm ready to take those steps. Best wishes to all other investors and future investors. I hope you all find success.
