I feel a bit stuck in life. Like in treading water.
I've made good progress last year's, switched to a career which I enjoy and my life is going pretty well.
But I feel that something is missing.
I love getting an idea and diving head first for weeks trying to solve a problem, and this is when I feel alive. I love being in that place. Having purpose, working toward a goal, working on the dream of building a business and building something that people can have use of.
I've dreamt about having my own business since as long as I can remember.
I've tried a few ones, but only one has seemed to even have just a little success which is an app I've bult that has 400 downloads.
But other than that it has just been ideas that didn't really hit the ground. And it makes me devastated to be honest. I have so much passion for this, but I don't seem to be able to find an idea that generate enough to build something from.
I've worked on a machine learning idea for four weeks and spent a lot of hours on it, just to find that there is a company who does all what I had in mind but 100 times better, not even an idea to trying to compete there.
I want to find something where I can use my skillset and doing what I enjoy doing - building software/algorithms/logic - creating a lively hood for myself and working toward my goals of financial success and creating value in society. But it feels like something is missing.
I don't know what it is. I've been working on my emotional issues for years now, getting out from a deep depression, and with good progress.
Right now running ASR which is the sub that so far have helped me the most. Both in the moment but also working trough the stressors that have caused me pain.
Maybe things will work out when I've healed enough. Maybe not. But right now I need a goal to look ahead on more than just being emotionally healthy. A mindset that can keep me going and overcome feeling this devastated as I do when I work on something that suddenly shows not to work out. It feels like getting the rug pulled out from underneath yourself.
I feel drawn to the idea of Maverick and UMS. But not before I feel that ASR has done enough with my emotional state to be ready for it.
What do you think about my case? I guess I needed to write this off my chest as I felt pretty bad and felt like I lost direction
Hey Brother, so I've read some of your posts and I'll give you my opinion on it, but of course also take any advice that Shannon has on this as well, as I believe he will have a better grasp of your current situation.
There are a few things to keep in mind about Maverick. The first is, it will drive you forward whether you're ready or not. This is why it's better to be ready for something like this, because if you aren't, you'll end up fighting it and probably dropping off due to being overwhelmed.
The question you have to ask yourself is, are you ready for a long term commitment? Maverick is going to take up the next 6 to 8 months of your life at least. And if you are, are you also willing to put in the work and put aside the distractions? Because Maverick will shift you into a direction that I don't think you can truly comprehend. When it begins doing that, and you're on here reading about someone else's journey on another sub, even with a case of FOMO, you have to reconcile the fact that you chose this path and did so knowingly.
If you can answer yes to both of those questions, I think you should move on Maverick because once you're on the sub you'll never look back.
It's an amazing sub if you don't fight it and you let it do it's thing. Because in the end, what it's doing is working within you and creating such profound change at such deep levels, it ultimately becomes a partner in your goals. I have said this several times in the past, but Maverick will quite literally create a symbiotic relationship with you to the point where it almost feels like that sub is it's own consciousness or source of intelligent energy. I can't explain it in any way that would either do it justice or actually qualify the experience that I have had with it, but it's something else entirely.
I want everyone who can, to experience the tremendous growth and profound change that this sub will create.
So if you think you're ready for it, I say hop in and enjoy the ride of a lifetime. As they say, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, but what makes it even better is having good company.
I feel like I've been riding into the sunsets with Maverick solo for a long time... would be great to share the journey with a few others...
