The Trinituner Entrepreneurship/Self Employed/ Side Hustle Thread

Life is too short to be stressed out, If you love certain things; first-be thankful you have a job and you have ambition for something greater. You could advance your skill as far a sewing goes, work hard at it for a while on the side and who knows. And always Pray.

If you don't have investors, invest in yourself.
Work at what you don't like, to build your initial capital, and start small.

[jmccomie]

I hate my office job and all office jobs in particular. I have no clue what I want to do in this life. I've tried taking time away and still can't figure it out. I like working, but all my jobs seems mediocore and not what I like to do. I like things like sewing, radiobraodcasting you know non-conventional jobs. I would love to have my own business but everytime I always get shut down by the "investors" - aka government ministries, banks, credit unions, I have business plans and marketing plans laid out nicely. I just down't kknow. I'm confused, demotivated and depressed as well.I have my degree and it's like I'm not even sure where to go or what to do now. Please some honet advice is needed here.

And here lies your problem

At present NEDCO says they have no money/funds/capital/skrilla/$$ to lend to anyone. NEDCO was the first place that I tried. They are also asking for 65% downpayment. How is the poor man winning in this scenario?

In order to address your particular dilemma it is absolutely imperative to set yourself some life goals/objective.
Once goals have been identified,the next step is to put time lines for achieving same.
This latter part of your program requires placement of an action plan which fits your programmed time lines.
This approach is best executed by formally documenting same and researching aspects of your program would become self evident.
Development of a personal strategic plan is as important to each individual as it is to a successful corporation.
Built into your plan will be interim goals which will serve to allow you to evaluate your progress and additionally help motivate you along the way as you 'knock-off' planned targets (the feel good factor).
This is a quick and dirty overview,but I can assure you moving in this direction will fill the void which is creating your sense of frustration as well as provide some positive impetus to your lifes purpose.
Don't get caught in the desire for instant gratification whilst wandering through the passage of time.
10-20 YEARS IS NOTHING and age is irrevelant (refer the Col. Sanders story).

As I read this I realised that I still don't know what I want to do. So I have to take time and figure that out first before I can take the steps necessary in fulfilling them.
