what are some ways to start off? - Sage - 04-08-2014 07:26 PM
First of all, I'm a high school senior, and I'm preparing myself for the real world out there. I've been having this entrepreneur dream for a while now and I would like to know what jobs i can get and further my entrepreneurship skills while having these jobs after i graduate. I'm not interested in college at this moment, because i believe it is wasting time on my investing. I would rather study myself as i get into the job im going to experience. What jobs are there that only requires high school diploma? in terms of reality. i know I'm very young so i may not be capable of having jobs such as customer service representative and stuff. Can anyone help me how to start my dream? Im looking for advice.

It's easy being an entrepreneur... but it doesn't sound like you are ready for it. It sounds like you just want to work for yourself eventually vs. having an idea and having the drive to make it happen.

Once you know what it is you want - go get it.
Focus - you need to be 100% in line with what you want.
With the right attitude you can get any job you want.
Go to your local chamber of commerce and volunteer, get to know the members, find someone doing what you want to be doing and ask questions. Find a mentor.
No one is going to give you anything, you have to go out there and earn it. Earn some trust, build a reputation for helping.
