You need a different mindset, respectfully. You get to choose how you feel. Your family might not understand your desire to be an entrepreneur, and that’s OK. Actually, what they think and believe is irrelevant. You have a desire to do your own thing as an entrepreneur, which may not be for your family, but you must “do you,” which means you need to get after what you are motivated to do. Another key point is you only “fail” when you believe and acknowledge that you have failed. You never fail as long as you have the strength and courage to pick yourself up, actively think through what didn’t work, and apply those learnings to whatever you do next. Your mindset is the key!! Also, when you surround yourself with like minded people they can be your support group, sounding board, and help keep you motivated, providing you with new ideas and thinking. Facebook Groups is great for this. Good luck!
