You definitely sound like you’re moving in the right direction. I’m wondering if you have any idea as to what your “dream job” would be. Are you basing it on the skills you have, the money you want to earn, how many hours you want to be working, working with people or on your own, etc.? We have a family business and I remember many years ago when my husband wanted to start a business, he was pretty much all over the place with a variety of ideas. His mom advised him to do what he knew and he would be successful and she was exactly right. He started a business doing what he was doing for someone else at the time and he’s still in business today, thank God! But with him that’s all he wanted, to own “his own” business and of course be successful.

So where’s your starting point? It sounds to me like it might be the money. Now don’t get me wrong, money is very important, we all have to eat lol. But the one thing I always tell my kids is find something you like to do and you’ll never work a day in your life. The money will follow. You can make tons of money and hate having to get up every morning to do it and that’s sad.

I like the gratitude course! Being thankful is always good for achieving what you want in your life.
