Yeah. And I'd rather not spend my time doing things like that.
Waiting is overrated.
Having a big ego is counterproductive to success. You need a level head if you want to start a business. Once you ignore sound advice because you don't like what you hear, that's when you shut yourself off to improvement. Maybe some people are being dicks to you, but maybe they feel it's necessary to get through to you. We all remember being younger and perhaps thinking like you (I do). But as you mature you realize how naive certain ideas were. Doesn't mean you can't keep working towards your goal, but you still have a lot to learn before you have the skillset to do it.
Take that or leave it. It's none of my concern.
I have listened to constructive criticism, which is why last night I launched Bedecieved as something new, and something smarter. I've listened to the people who have expressed discontent in a constructive way. It's the assholes that I do not understand.
By the way, cool to see you back.
I AM using it to my advantage. Because while all these other people my age are drinking, getting stoned, and being kids, I'm putting in 12-15 hours a day to something I love and I know will make me successful one day.
Do you intend to go to college after HS, to get formal education in business, or is your business going to be what you'll be in full-time straight out of HS?
Either option is perfectly viable for a person starting a business, though, formal education in business can never do harm. I'm guessing you are, is that the case?
It honestly depends. I would love to go for either psychology or business. or both. But it honestly depends on where I am when I get to that point. I don't expect to become successful over night. In fact, I expect to fail 20 more times before I find something that works. That's how most success works.
