Have you also waited for the perfect moment? Do you resonate with what we experienced? Are you trapped in the consumption wheel?

I have been waiting for the 'perfect time' for about 4 years. I have been talking and talking and talking about starting my own business but I had the same problem as you guys of looking busy or appearing productive while never actually doing anything. I always had an excuse, I have a full-time job, I'm too busy, I don't have time to devote to it, I have a baby, etc. I think the real root of it was that I didn't believe I could do it. I still struggle with this. But now I've started and this community gives me hope that I can do it and be successful.
Hello! :)
I’m Melinda and I’m from Canada, but I live in Indonesia with my husband and 9mo old baby girl. I joined this community at my husband’s @vendysutanto recommendation because I have been wanting to build something online for a long time. I have been teaching English in Indonesia since 2015. I worked at English centres until the pandemic when I went online and joined Preply. I really struggled on the platform to get students and to make a living. I went back to working in a school for almost 2 years and was miserable. So at the beginning of this year, I challenged myself to start something online. I have a few private students and I started a pronunciation workshop for Indonesians. So it's a start. My goal is to create something that limits the 1:1 classes so that my time is freed up to focus on my family. So, for the next 30 days, I want to nail down my niche. I also need to work on my mindset and believe that I can do this. I’m looking forward to learning and growing together in this community. Any suggestions, advice, or encouragement are welcome. If I can do so in return I will. Thanks all!
