Being an entrepreneur isn't about money. Obviously the life involved capital however money is not important when getting started.
To begin you must train yourself to the entrepreneurial mindset. This is a mindset where future you becomes the hero of your life. Every good hero needs goals, and every hero with goals will need a villain.
You must create this villain in your mind. Everything you want, they want it too. That car you want, that computer you want, that girl you want. The Villain wants more. In addition, the villain works harder than you right now.
You must work out who this villain is and what they do. The villain doesnt work out when they feel like it. They get up every morning and are at the gym by 6. The villain is studying every night. They are reading 2 books a month. They are.. on and on. Write a list right now, 25 to 30 points minimum of what your villain does (what you wish you could do). Once you have an idea of this person, you will now know exactly what you could have been if you were working towards your goals everyday for the past year without fail. Think about what kind of shape you would be in after an hour of the gym everyday regardless of how you feel. Think about how far ahead you would be in any endeavor.
You now know exactly what you need to be doing to become your own hero. You are the only person that can work hard to achieve your goals. And you are the only person who can quit and give up on yourself. Dont fuck this up, its on you now.
Are you going to be the hero? Or the average nobody. Get writing your list of villain traits, and then the next time you are eating chips watching Mulan for the 30th time on the couch... just know the villain is getting all you ever dreamed of for their hard work.
