Can't get started

[Zackery Smith]

I am a certified building contractor and a certified underground utility contractor. I have all the knowledge and skills but I just can't get started. Everytime I have a good opportunity it gets shut down by life or someone's stupid low price. I am working full time at a another contractors (40 million in contracts) office as a project manager. I like working there but I want more. I see the money but can't get my foot in the door.  If you can give me any advice I would be grateful. 

thank you,
