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?

You cannot succeed without pain. Your first business went through with the pain of inability to suit in your own family, also college dropout ( I’m from Europe, we don’t get into loans when it comes to college so that probably was no picnic either) now the world, gods, planet. Call it whatever you want, is testing if you are a good fit for it.

You always can hire some help, people, find someone to pull this ideas off, but most important is if you are ready for the next step.

That’s funny, but I’ve learned that some time ago. If I wouldn’t have been broke after few businesses that went bankrupt I would totally fuck it up my current business.

Life is a process, trust and be open getting better context in life 😎
