Thinking of Myself as an Entrepreneur

It's pretty obvious (at least to me) that writing is my biggest passion in life. I think that in order to be a good entrepreneur though, you need a little more than that. Lately I've been trying to think of another interest of mine that I could combine with my love of writing so that I could make a cool and interesting site that people would want to look at.

An idea that I thought of the other day that I might want to actually try out is a website dedicated to personal wellness (emotional, mental, physical). I've been really interested in this for some reason lately and I always enjoy those types of sections in magazines. I want to target this towards girls my age (college age and young twenties). I think it's an important time in life and it's important for girls to have good info out there.

I would probably want to use WordPress for my site because I think it's a good publishing platform. I think I would probably be a site that gathers info from different places around the Internet and organizing all it together in a place where young women can find it. I would also like to write some of my own stuff too though. What might be a good idea is taking other people's articles and use those as the base of a post and then add my own stuff to it as well. I'm not really sure how I could do this, but I think it could work well if done correctly. I just wouldn't want it to seem like I was ripping off anyone else's material. I would have to work out all the kinks of this idea, but I think it could be a great tool for young women.

If this ever became an actual site with some money and funding, I could have people write for it and I could also have events on the site. One idea I have is to have live video streams of conversations with professionals in the health field and they could answer questions from readers. I know that one is a long shot, but it's something to think of. I could even expand the idea into something more as well. I always thought it'd be cool to have some sort of company focused on young women and they could do seminars and workshops to work on self-confidence and personal wellness. I think a lot of this society is about fending for ourselves so I think it'd be great to stop thinking this way and create a program where people can see that they aren't alone. It'd be a great way for people to better themselves and learn more about who they are.

So at this point I'm getting way off track from my original idea. I think starting with a website could be a fun idea and it'd be easy enough for me to start up on my own.
