How To Take Action
I would suggest starting by identifying a problem you know you can solve with the tools and skills you already have. That's step one. Keep it simple. You don't need a lot of money or time to figure this out. Look at what people need and match that with what you're good at.
Next, learn what you need to know to start making money from solving this problem. This could mean watching free tutorials online, reading books from the library, or talking to people who have done it before. You want to get to the point where you can charge for your solution as soon as possible.
Once you're making progress, you might see another problem that's close to the one you're already solving. This is a good time to think about whether you should tackle that new problem or just get better at what you're already doing. Maybe you can offer more value to your customers, or find a way to solve their problem faster.
Remember, it's not about being the biggest or the best right away. The goal is to set achievable targets. Focus on making good choices with what you have, and understand that some luck is involved in every big success. Aim for goals you can really reach instead of trying to jump straight to the top where it's super competitive.
By taking these steps, you'll build a strong foundation for your business or personal growth. You'll be able to move forward with confidence, and that's a big part of what success looks like.
