well i just realized that im 21, i have a clothing company in which my 2 partners who also happened to be friends bailed on me, im struggling with it. im married and its hard to feel like i need to be making more of myself not just for me but for my wife.... im a good artist, im very smart, im motivated but it seems that recently ive been having issues with my plans coming to fruition. ive always been the type of person to say something and work my ass off till i get it, i wanted a car i worked and busted my ass and got it. i wanted to start a company, i busted my ass and got it and now it seems since this started its been going down hill... i need someone who is my equal haha it sounds gay but i need another person doing this shit with me to motivate me and keep me going. any of you ever had anything similar happen? any ideas on what i can do? btw if you know anyone in the clothing industry or who owns a boutique or store let me know... any hook-ups would be appreciated. i know i cant advertise on here which is why most of you have no idea what im talking about i know a few of you do.

Know what you're going through. I am a quarter of a century old, own a struggling company, am not married but have been in my current relationship for six years. I am an artist(photo/canvass/clothing/design). I think I suck at any art but everyone tells me otherwise. I've been thinking a lot of the same things lately.

 

Hang in there. I don't know you at all but it seem like you have your shit together and have what it takes to "get shit done"

 

If you are interested in selling clothing online, pm me.

or aim

hahaha

p.s. clothing company? do you own one of those companies that silkscreens like pirateships and skulls with sparrows flying over them and scribbly ass writing all over it in bright neon?

you could pay to advertise on here.....

 

At 21 to have set up your own company and stuff like that seems quite motivated.

when iw as 21 my life was weed and other drugs as i rode the bus

 

you seem to be commited so take this in your stride

hahaha nah i dont do stupid ass flash looking shit man, i just do what i do put my heart and soul down to a degree and print it... i give it what i got but i kinda put my twist on what sells... i have my other ways of keeping my art sacred.

Damn, you are ony 21 and you know what you want to do with your life!!!

 

I envy you, as I'm 25 and have no idea what I want to do, other than some type of management job where I can tell people what to do.

 

Good luck with your company mate.

haha im not as put together as it may sound, i mean i have goals and thats what i want... im not stuck in a path to those goals this is just a route im taking to try and get there now... if it doesnt work ill move on but after going to school for graphic design/digital imaging, being an artist and living for this shit id really like to make this the path that leads me where im going and not another wrong turn, im not worried about getting older im just worried about getting less motivated. i cant say for sure if its my youth and vitality that gives me the drive and its scary to think that one day i might not have it so im going for it now

dude, itll be ok, just listen to this:
