First stage isn’t to find a problem and solve it.

First stage is self-reflection.

Figure out who you are, who you want to become, and the life you want to live.

I speak from experience.

I left a job I hated, and ended up building a business I hated - which was worse.

Once you’ve figured out what you want from a life perspective, then you work on the income model to fit it.

Otherwise you just continue chasing the hamster wheel in a different format.

That doesn’t mean it’s easy and you’ll get what you want.

But it will be easier to reach a target you’re clear on, and actually want because it suits you as opposed to what you think society will give you status for.

Is your career or project what you want and giving you the life you want to live?

If not, what needs to change?
