Making things work out

I'm not sure if many entrepreneurs have faced the same challenges with money as I have recently. I've always believed that money should never be a focus within anything, that's including business as well. But honestly, life is kinda tough. I can understand what people go through to get ends to meet. I suppose I've been young and naive until now. Not many of us can seriously look into something like business or entrepreneurship because of no guarantees. Life is surprisingly difficult without a job.

Cutting living expenses to make ends meet is no fun task. I've been able to manage, but living life frugally takes away from one's energy for life. When one is poor, everything seems out of reach. To numb the pain, you just stop wanting things. Needless to say, this is a slippery slope for many, and gives some insight into why people stay unemployed for long periods of time.

I won't accept this outcome though. I know the fundamental problem is a lack of money. But this stems from being unable to find any paid work. It seems like I'm too inexperienced to do any work that I'm qualified to do as well as too old and overqualified to take a cheap retail job. The only roles that seem to be open to me seem to be scams and pyramid schemes. Needless to say, I'm not touching any of that B***S***... again.

I guess I'll have to continue doing what I've been doing all this time, tutoring. I wanted to find a legitimate job and start building some connections and references, but I guess life works in interesting ways. I don't know if I can find any work, now that school is out. But I got to forge on ahead, the road backwards is not an option. I have a whole bunch of little thoughts in my mind, I'll write short posts about them later. I don't know what this post is about. I guess its just a record of me struggling over money and work right now. I bet I'll read this in years to come and laugh about it. But until then, I don't know.
