The 9 to 5 Versus Entrepreneurship (How to Figure out What You Want to Do)


Listen Later

No one really has life figured out yet completely. We by no means are close to figuring out life in its entirety, but nonetheless, we felt this discussion was important to share because we know that there are a lot of people out there just like us pondering what the “right” path to take looks like. Specifically, in the context of “should, I work in a 9-5 or should I work for myself to create something of my own?” 

It’s easy and sometimes tempting to jump to a conclusion and bash on one side of this ideological debate. That is not the point of this discussion. The hope is to shed some light on how to:

  • First, understand yourself and what it is that you desire in your life
  • Reverse engineer on what path suits your belief system and personality the best
  • Find meaning in what you do regardless of which path you choose to take
  • Understand that it’s not about which path is “right”, but rather which path is “true” to YOU.

    If you’re uncertain, the most practical thing you can do is to try more things. Sitting back to wait and ponder leads to inaction and inaction usually always leads to frustration.
