I got near places then my grandad died and I had another vision.... owning a business and living the simple life giving my mother the opportunity to retire early, having a relationship with kids, having a big house with a swimming pool, 5 star holidays and a legacy to leave my future children... So I started a recruitment company working for a couple and being called an asset by others I thought I could do this..... I set it up two years ago but have only been actively recruiting just over 6 months on and off due to personal problems. Now I'm 26 I'm feeling low, all my mates are enjoying holidays, the person I want to be with is enjoying life and I'm working in a part time job I hate trying to build my business up which seems to be stuck in nothing zone! I've been to spiritual churches and seen mediums who have said it'll be successful without knowing what I do.... all my friends and family believe in me but I just feel kind of stuck and like I want to get a full time job and enjoy life instead of focusing on this fighting for the life I really want! I just don't know what to do to be honest Reply to this Question

reader, anonymous, writes (18 July 2017): You've got to believe in yourself and keep at it. You're too distracted by these so-called "personal-problems."
You've got too many ambitions and not enough focus. When people say they get side-tracked by personal problems; that usually means family-dysfunction or messy relationships.
I think you've gotten discouraged and you're giving-up in frustration. You're also too concerned about everybody else. You can't hate trying to build your business. You're getting in your own way with that kind of mindset. It makes no sense.
Get a full-time job and maintain a steady income. Build yourself some working capital. Join a focus group for entrepreneurs and attend small-business seminars. Take courses in business. Don't assume you can start and run a business with no knowledge of how one works. First come the long hours, hard work, and dedication. Seeing profits and rewards may be long into the future, but you can't let that discourage you.
Single-out the one thing you really want to do. Put yourself into it. Believe in yourself and believe in your dream.
If you want to explore something spiritual, try a real house of worship; and avoid those fortune-tellers and mediums. They're noting but scam-artists preying on gullible people for money. A prayer to a higher power never hurts; and it's free.
