I'm desperately in need of some help here. Just a few months ago I stopped building a startup with my friend that I had began 7 months earlier, and ever since then I have been simply languishing. No longer with the commitment of a job or big project to keep me busy and challenged, I haven't been doing much of anything. I've traveled some to see friends, tinkered away on some small JavaScript projects, and blogged a lot -- but that's about it. Most days I just read books or browse Twitter and HN.
I have no clue what I should do next. I'm only 18, but graduated high school two years early and joined a startup immediately upon graduation. So this is really the first time I have been without any commitments. I was thinking about traveling the US some more and finding companies that would be willing to exchange web dev work for room and board, but I haven't started looking into that much yet.
My hope with posting here is that I'll find someone that has gone through a similar experience of languishing and getting nothing done. I feel lazy, embarrassed to meet people for fear of them asking what I'm up to -- because the answer would be nothing. Anyone have advice on how to move forward? How to find inspiration or motivation?
