There's an SEO service I should be releasing in the next few days (if everything goes according to plan). The thing is, I'm doing everything better than I ever imagined.
- The website looks great, web copy looks fantastic (nothing substitutes testing, but still).
- With some help from a programmer, I figured out how to automate almost everything. Right now, to a large extent, it's basically a button that you push to make money.
- Socially I find it effortless to open up new opportunities for myself.
- I've started a great new workout schedule (TACFIT Kettlebell Spetsnaz), that I enjoy a lot.
- My body has changed noticeably without me doing a lot of thinking about it.
Bottom line is, theoretically I should be happy. Yet, there's something missing. I am yet to see the bigger picture and how those abilities fit into it. I'm seeing this SEO project as finished, and I'm realizing it can make significant amounts of money, but I guess my definition of "significant" has changed.
I think I'm just bored, because I'm not aggressive enough in developing the projects to their full potential. I'm not outsourcing and I should be, no matter how good I've gotten. I'm not searching for funding, and I should be, because my circumstances are better than those of most of the entrepreneurs around here, and they often manage to secure funding. I'm a much better talker, persuader and presenter than most of them even before BASE, not to mention now.
Instead of doing those things, I'm spending time learning programming, web design, and all kinds of "interesting stuff", that is not what an entrepreneur is necessarily about. No matter how good I feel about being versatile, that's not the optimal way to make money OR make good products.
I'm really pissed at myself for behaving like a worker instead of an entrepreneur. I'm actually happy I'm pissed. That only means that a breakthrough is about to happen.
