Title: I am a wantrepreneur. For over 7 years, I have wanted to start something. Really hard, wanted.
Surely, I have tried to find an audience for a twisted &quot;Come Dine With Me&quot; (but who would host 3 others random unknown people in their own house??), have started some websites (extractemailaddress.com, linux-commands-examples.com) in the hope to get a big enough niche audience... But all I can get is an average of 8€ per month of donations, which barely covers my hosting costs.<p>I am trying to get new ideas done. But after one day of programming for my job, I am exhausted and I cannot extract any brain-juice any more. And if I try to work during the week-ends, I can&#x27;t rewind enough for the next week. And my progress are damn slow. It seems I would need a year to achieve what a good programmer could do in a week.<p>It seems to me impossible I would be one day a Takuya Matsuyama who makes enough for a living with its app (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=18216783), let alone be a Mark Zuckerberg.
Even if I have some theoretical knowledge of starting things, as I have read news, stuff, feedback on HN and other sites for years.<p>Creating a successful business seems to me like the only viable career path to me. I don&#x27;t see myself as a good developer (maybe it is due to the First month in a new company imposter syndrome, https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=18257767). So this is not a long-term plan. And I have nerver learned to do anything else. So the only thing left is to create some things, and be successful enough in at least one to make a living out of it.<p>What should I do?
