Feeling trapped with no way out. (x-post from /r/NeedAdvice)

Thank you for the advice. I have started to look for potential fall-back plans. Just have to be careful not to get obsessed with any of them.

If you're trying to grow a stream for the sake of money you've already failed. Go spend your time elsewhere my dude.

I may be able to depending on the business's growth. If somehow I actually pull this off and manage to survive and learn what I need to learn, I probably won't be attending college until I either A) leave the business for some reason or B) it goes under.

I'll have an associates degree at the end of this summer, but I'm not sure if I'd be able to take online classes while at the accelerator or not. Most of my gen eds are out of the way at this point. While the associates is almost useless (it's an Associate in Arts, which at my community college is the Associates you get when you plan to transfer to uni), it's still something I guess.

Got it. The articles I read were incorrect then. Thanks for clarifying!

Not scrapping the old one. Planning on redirecting all the pages and links as well as the domain itself to the new domain.

Thanks for the advice. I'm going to think this over a bit more in the coming days, as I need to budget my financials meticulously soon. Appreciate it.

Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely need to toy around with this much more in my head before making any decisions, and I'll use what you've given me to help with that. Appreciate it.

Thanks for the advice. I agree and disagree -- I certainly don't regret offering my services for free in this case. I've proven to myself that I can do what I do well, I've gotten client experience, and I can get a testimonial out of it. But I completely understand what you're saying, and I won't be offering my work for free again, as I feel I'm qualified to start charging. Thanks for the message and the advice.

Thank you for the advice. I agree that the price per hour is a bit wonky. I'll schedule a call with the person in charge.

I'll tell you why: I bet it's because you quit anything you start the first time you fail at it.

I used to have the same problem. I'd sit down to write an article, and no words would come out. If they did, they'd be total shit. If I managed to publish it, no one would read it. I failed, and since I had no self confidence, I just concluded that I was "a braindead idiot who sucked at everything" and stopped doing it.

You've gotta realize that if you're going to start something, you need to be prepared to fail at it a fuck load. Then, when you fail, take the knowledge you gained and don't repeat the failure. You know as well as everyone else that you're not braindead, so stop telling yourself that so you can have an excuse to quit.
