We may not know for sure in the beginning.
This is a more common I’m-stuck question that’s posed to me, and the simplest way to answer it is – “we don’t know” – frankly you need more data. Oftentimes, it’s a mental block where one replays the same question again and again in one’s head and it goes in a loop, in a not good way.
What fuels this is uncertainty and doubt is because of lack of data and to me there is only one way: forward to get more experience and data which will confirm for or against.
For me my solution is: do it more, do it for a longer period of time, and if it suits you ie it
- provides you with an outcome that is desirable, good, profitable and/or
- doesn’t harm you or anyone else and/or
- it’s required or a responsibility and/or
- you’re curious
then continue.
If unsure, continue as above BUT go explore. Look for alternatives, what other people do, etc.

I’m the founder and writer here at NigelChua.com; as well as serial entrepreneur, therapy business entrepreneur, digital entrepreneur, investor and also happy husband, father and Christian.
I love good success and freedom and learned early in life on importance of making more and entrepreneurship. Started and sold off a business for 7-figures; built another 7-figure one and growing it further, as well as building/investing into other businesses and investments as well as advisory works.
I help motivate and/or bring clarity to people as to building their lives based on what matters most to them – this could be earning more with entrepreneurship or a side hustle; or scaling back their expenses (or kill their mindless spending and keeping up with the Joneses’); improving communications, relationships, problem-solving and other growth-related matters.
All for one main purpose: to help readers become happier by build their lives according to what matters most to them.
