Steps to living your life on your own damn terms.
Step 1. Find the bull’s eye.
Because to aim the bull’s eye you need to find it first.
Don’t quit your current job just to be in another mess which you don’t really like. What’s the benefit of being your own boss if every morning you have to drag your ass out of your bed and crawl towards your laptop?
Spend time in finding and building your passion, if you don’t know how to find it
see my guide here, don’t hurry up, it’s not a
world war 3 you are fighting about.
Step 2. Make a bucket list and actively knock items off.
This is the most necessary step if you skip this one then there will be no difference in your living or existing.
I know what you are doing, building your career for a better life, studying day and night to get a degree and then working more to clear an interview and after that working even harder to make your boss happy so that you can go on vacations and fulfill your dreams later.
But the one thing you didn’t know is that “later” never going to come and when your time is going to end on this beautiful earth you will regret every decision you want to take but never took, because of the fear running in your nerves, you going to regret the trips you didn’t took, because you were working on a project, the time you didn’t spend with your family and friends, because you were working for your boss’s dream. Believe me don’t waste this gift of GOD “life”.
As Benjamin P.Hardy said “Build your life around your ambitions not your ambitions around your life”.
Start building the list of the things you want to do before dying.
Think that you have 4 years of life left in your pocket. What would you do with those 4 years?
And when you are done building your list start doing things from it because you aren’t going to live forever.
As Professor Harold Hill has said — “You pile up enough tomorrows, and you’ll find you are left with nothing but a lot of empty yesterdays.”

Step 3. Don’t care so much about what others think. They are going to think anyway.
Step 4. Start building your venture.
I know in starting the very thought of finding an idea to launch your own business is scary. It’s gonna haunt you like a ghost.
As others said finding an idea is a process not a light bulb moment.
In the beginning, everything seems dark, but after a couple of hours, you will start getting ideas. The more you think the more ideas you will get.
Step 5. Persistence and patience are the keys to success.
No one is going to be a millionaire overnight. The Internet is flooded with lots of books, articles, and blueprints which will promise you the bigger success.
Like “My 4 hour a day routine working online and earning $162546 per month without doing anything”.
This is all crappy little piece of shit because what they tell you is that treasure is out there on the internet but they will not give the map of treasure. I am not saying that you cannot earn online this much, you can and you really can but not that easy as it sounds.
You need to work hard for it, it will not going to happen in a snap of a finger.
It’s a complete process, sometimes you feel like you’re on the seventh cloud and everything is going awesome, another time you will feel like shit or you fail at some points.
But if stay focused towards your goal you will definitely get success in the end.
Step 6. The biggest cause of failure.
Reading motivational articles like this one and get back to your daily routines.
This is the biggest cause of failure.
There is saying that even pouring a single drop of water can fill the ocean definitely it will take time but with every drop, you pour you get closer to build your ocean.
Doesn’t matter what your dream is, there is always something you can do today. Even if it is a tiny task but at least you will get started and soon doing small-small tiny tasks you will build your dream come true.
