Hello Folks!



I just read the 4HWW and it really inspired me. I am determined to erase any financial issues and start living a life worth being lived.



As it looks to be, I am facing several major challenges.


I am really clueless about my muse. My lack of creativity is depressing.
After dropping out of High School a few years ago, I eventually ended up under Psychiatric supervision. That pretty much sums it up for my social and professional group associations. Oh, and I like eating chocolate.


My computing skills don't go beyond surfing the Internet and writing Mails.


My budget is real tight.


I am based in Europe, English is not my first language. How far is this a hindrance and an advantage?
For example, LLCs sound really great but we're talking US... How to find out about legal issues for my specific country? Emigrating is not an option for the time being.



I'm probably still at the level where I don't even know of most troubles I am yet to face, but I am willing to put a lot of time and energy into this.

Any way that you can leverage any of these experiences to provide help or information for others in the same boat? Or do something really cool with chocolate?

Why not leverage your geography? Offer something to Europeans, or sell a European good? And of course, English isn't the only language on the internet, maybe there's a niche in your native tongue?

You've listed at least 4 things about yourself. Brainstorm thoughtfully around each of the 4, see what you come up with.

Very good advice that was just given to you.

If chocolate is your thing, there are some very good idea of muses about chocolate ! (can be to sell chocolate bars, can be to give recipes, ideas...).

About entrepreneurship, you should check what is the law in your country : how do someone start up a company ? Look for entrepreneur law and similar stuff !

Good luck !

There should be plenty of resources online to check into business laws in your country. Government information online is always a good reference point to have.

As far as your lack of a formalized education goes- don't let that get you down, so long as you're willing to learn what needs to be learned. Trial and error, hitting the streets and actually doing the work, as well as a bit of research are the most important things.

As far as a muse goes, I think some good ideas were given to you. And, also take into account that you're bilingual (and fairly fluent, from what little I've seen) and maybe leverage that if you can. Since my current online project focuses on utilizing this for money, that immediately jumped out to me.

Also, having been under psychiatric supervision, I imagine that places you as one of a very few people with that kind of experience who is hoping to form a business- you are already halfway to being an expert there.

Good luck and work hard.
