When I first got the idea of starting my own business I really struggled to find an idea that I could latch onto and remain invested in. I tried everything from physical labor, to digital work, and even just tutoring kids on the weekend to make a few extra dollars but honestly I couldn't really get behind any of these ideas as they just felt like another job I would have to do instead of feeling like something I wanted to invest my times and effort in. So recently I went back to the drawing board and looked at all the things I enjoy and how can I use those to really make a living.

Now one of those things I decided on was wrestling, I've loved wrestling or I should say grappling since I'm a jiu jitsu guy now in my older age, but I love grappling and how it's really changed my life for the better. Now I'm not a blackbelt or a state champion by any means which you can probably tell by the username, but I will say I did often times get pinned in some of the best looking singlets out there. With that being said, I decided what if I use my love for grappling along with my connections and style to start my own clothing business where I sell things like bags, singlets, hoodies, etc....

Why are the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs duplicated with the third paragraph being a bit longer, and why does the post say you are in your older years but the post is tagged "young entrepreneur"?

Edit: post* not psst
