Hello, I am a 23 y/o software engineer looking to escape my own limiting paradigms. I am of the opinion that surrounding one's self with successful and driven individuals is the best way to change ones mindset. My local connections aren't interested in being my mentor / friend so I thought maybe someone online would be. I have an open mind and I'm eager to learn a new way of looking at things.
I have been working my first engineering job for around 7 months now and I already feel like doing something more fulfilling. Everyday feels like someone else's day; the money isn't great either (it's a junior role). I decided to start exploring side projects and interests until I find a viable business. Recently I tried building an e-commerce brand however my approach to value proposition was all wrong, I did learn lots though.
My lifestyle is pretty poor, I live and work in my girlfriends small dorm room and sleep on the floor. I have limited assets as I have only been working for the last 7 months, salaries are also smaller in UK (thinking of moving to US as dual citizen). I grew up in a low income single mother household and never had anyone around me to teach me how to make money. I guess I'm looking for the farther I never had ..
