    I'm 36 and have felt so lost for so long due to some things in my life. But after my life crumbled before my eyes these past few years I wanna start something for myself and I know I'm talented and put on this earth to share my talents with the world to make it a better place.

      I agree. I only have the energy to do 1 full time job. After that I'm exhausted. I sleep a lot. I do laundry and that stuff on the weekend because I'm too tired on work days.
      People talk about working a full time job while starting their own business and also finding time to go to the gym. I'm like, what planet are they from?
      My only way to save money is to live cheap, not getting a second job. Because I'm low energy.
      My only way to lose weight is to eat less food, not going to the gym. Because I'm low energy.
      I'm low energy. Not by choice. I simply just am. So anything I do must adapt to that fact.

    I got fired for making UA-cam videos at work. So now i'm all in on this adventure. Here are my personal notes from Denmo's video.
    3:09 - Staying busy changes your perspective on how precious time is
    4:55 - Enjoy the process
    9:08 - Don't quit your job too early
    10:34 - 10hrs vs 4hrs
    14:08 - Don't neglect your relationships
    17:30 - UA-cam University
    19:46 - I can relate to this for sure...smh 🤦🏾‍♂
    22:08 - Everything ain't for everybody
    22:33 - Denmo, I think you're an ENFP like me. Consider looking into the cognitive functions of an ENFP by CS Joseph here on UA-cam
    24:29 - Cons. of not having a job in years
    26:15 - Facts lol. I delivered at Fedex for 5yrs. It was fun to be outside and interact with people all day lol
    28:05 - Don't be too hard on yourself

    Im 29. Got laid off from an awesome senior lead logistics speacilist position in the cannabis industry in september. Been leveling the fuck up since and been proud of myself for it.
    Currently upgrading my math skills so i can get into the trades via an electrician apprenticeship program. Im also working on renovating my sisters new home in hamilton so her, her partner and new born baby can move in as stress free as possible.
    Im currently 20 days sober from cannabis and i aint got anyone else in my life making a career change or personal growth transition like i am right now so its felt like a lonely road.
    That point you made about going to a rock show on your own cause you want it or going to a country concert with your friends hit hard.
    I look forward to meeting other like minded people who are grinding to level up. If your reading this and your going through it-give yourself props for being courageous enough to make it happen than go make it fuckin happen.

    The car rides are cool bro. I'm in my 40s so a bit older than your target. I've been self employed for most my life (doing photography) and I've struggled to do something new. A lot is complacency and laziness because I just can't seem to find something to be passionate about. But I keep trying new things...and failing. I'm trying a different approach this time and rather than starting completely from scratch I'm going to try to manipulate my current business which I have experience in, to something new. I got a cool new drone and have been practicing with it and maybe I'll be able to do some creative stuff with airbnbs or something that will allow me to travel and make money. We'll see. Thanks for the constant motivation.

    Denmo. You are spot on with having a certain personality to be self employed. I just made it to my sixth year being self employed. Hated working for someone else. Hated it!
    And you are so right about childhood being a factor in it too.
    I'm super successful now. But even if I was only making like 50k a year on my own, to me that's worth more making 150k working for someone else.

    Edit: your concert analogy explains it all. Under normal circumstances, I would never goto a concert where I don't care about the music. Thanks for at least helping me realize that I don't have another option other than entrepreneurship.

    I ran a small CBD company through Instagram and eBay for a little over 6 years. I was producing CBD tinctures, vape cartridges, salves, bath bombs, and capsules.
    It did pretty well and I was able to pay my rent, car insurance, and bills without any issues. I did quite a bit of traveling during that time for both business and fun.
    Everything was going alright until COVID hit causing major issues with shipping and receiving especially with USPS. Also the cost of packaging, jars, and materials needed to produce my products became much more expensive.
    I slowly lost customers as it became harder to network in person at events like festivals and meet & greets during the pandemic. Costs of material also went up as the post office became less reliable.
    It was fun while it lasted and I got to experience a lot of things most people won't until they retire.
    Now I'm back to a normal 7am-4pm Mon to Fri warehouse job. It isn't too bad and the insurance is great. Working for someone else took a little bit of getting used to again but it's not so bad.
