It's normal to feel lost and unfulfilled. Starting a business takes time, and it's okay to explore different paths.

I decided that I didn't want to work any corporate jobs. I've worked only 3 in my lifetime but hated all of them. I posted a thing on my local county FB group asking for a job after I had quit my last corporate job and got an offer for $20 an hour. It was the highest paying job that I had gotten and I instantly took it. Not hard work really and an amazing group of people to hang out with. Everyone in the company had gone to school together in HS a few years ago so everyone is in their 20's and I'm like the younger brother of the group.
The boss of the company is a really great dude and I look up to him. The company decided to change paths from what it was originally and I felt like I wasn't really apart of the work anymore so I ended up slowly not working more and more. Up until about 6 months ago I was out of work with him for about 3 months.
I don't really have any bills and monthly it all adds up to about $200. My parents don't charge me rent and I am grateful for that. So money isn't really a huge deal. But I don't feel like I'm doing anything with my life. I don't work all that much.
I started my own business and it's going decent. I'm not growing at the rate I want to be though. I've put a lot of time and money into this business to get it going and finally got it registered legit as an LLC about 2 months ago. It's only been a thing for about 6 months. I don't really work all that much. I'll have maybe one client a week if that. It pays for all of my expenses and then some so I have money to invest and things like that. Money isn't a huge thing to me though. I'd be happy to just travel on bus and work odd jobs to pay off my fees.
Is it normal? To feel like you've accomplished nothing and are actively accomplishing nothing? It doesn't feel bad but it's kind of numbing.
Thanks for reading. In fact, you just don't see from the outside how cool you are. Starting your own business is difficult both mentally and physically, and it deserves respect. Take your time and start appreciating your own achievements!
