Yes I know, very cliche question. Let me break it down for you. I’m a website developer by trade who gets frustrated when coding / building websites. I’m more of a coder than designer but I try to be a one man shop which doesn’t always work out. Anyway, I’m not sure if I should niche and continue the web design or software path or choose a different field all together. I really don’t know much besides fitness / bodybuilding and computers / websites. Other than that I’m at a complete loss. I would have no problem sticking with websites but I ALWAYS had issues getting clients. I just don’t know what to do in that area. Any advice, suggestions, different ideas?

I'm finding that I get bored of my ideas pretty quick. Because I don't care about whether or not they exist really. And the more I try to think of what I really truly care about existing in the world the more terrified I am at embarking on that endeavor.

Only recently did I realize that I've had the same thought in the back of my head for a long time and never even thought to try and make it a reality because it seemed so ridiculously far fetched. I've let every other tiny idea occupy my time.

If you had pressed me about what I cared about I probably would not have even mentioned it. But now that I've realized how much I care about this one stupid thing, I can't see myself stopping. It feels so stupid to even try but yet I keep working on it with no expectation of success.

I think everybody probably has a similar problem. Their passion is staring them in the face but they refuse to recognize it as anything other than an outlandish pipe dream.
