Here is something interesting I discovered about myself.
Growing up, I was told you can’t be happy until you are rich.

I wasted so many years trying to create websites and other types of online businesses that never really took off. Even though I swore they would, every single time. I always told myself, once this one is done, I will be happy and can start living my life.

It wasn’t until recently that I accepted I will never be rich, because that’s not what happiness is to me.

I’m most happy when I am around people and having fun. Not when I am creating something that will make me money. Successful entrepreneurs are most happy when they are creating something, not when they are around people.

So I will be happy when I am surrounded by people who want to have fun, not make money.
I enjoy writing on this blog and sharing my life experiences so others can learn from my mistakes, and it has been getting some attention. If I get rich off of it, that is wonderful, but it’s meaningful to me that I am sharing something that will change people’s lives, not just make money. And that is what keeps me going.

So if you are trying to create something that just makes money, it will never work. Because you will quit before it becomes successful.
