Although I have accomplished quite a bit in my short lifetime, I’m going through a stage where I feel like a loser.
I’ve been slacking off and honestly kind of board with my business. It’s at the point where I can get by without doing much work.
Everytime I come back to my hometown my family just doesn’t get it. They don’t understand my entrepreneurial mindset.
I’m 21 years old and I’ve built an online fitness coaching business.
I’ve generated multiple six figures over the last 2-3 years.
I decided I was finished with college after my freshman year and wanted to pursue my business all the way.
I moved to San Diego and I’ve been there for about two years.
Although most people would say you’re doing amazing and killing it.
I know I could be doing better.
I want a bigger opportunity, I want to work harder, and develop a vision so huge it scares me.
I feel like my next evolution is coming up but right now I’m in the growing pains where I feel a little lost and unsure of what’s next.
I have a few ideas and I’m testing out the market for them but it’s an uncomfortable period.
I feel like I’m just coasting and not growing. It’s not a fun place to be.
Any advice?
Honestly, you don’t have to love your business to profit from it. If I were you, I’d think about how to go about scaling it so that you can focus on other ventures or even find something more interesting to do with your current one. Most people work 80% of their time in the business and 20% on the business. If you automate that machine, you can spend 80% on the business and 20% in the business. That to me has been the fun part, at least for my business, rather than the business itself.
