The inertia to get started was the hardest thing for me as well, as I have experienced it a couple of months ago. The information overload was real, and especially when you're doing this alone while most of your peers are still making their money fly away like no tmr and peer pressure is making you think if you're doing too much right now and sacrificing your entire youth and social life for this.
