Some of the really successful people like Steve jobs went through various low points and then came back and ultimately got to major outcomes.

His upcoming book, CHANGES "clearly identify the intersection that exists or crossroads – what are you really good at? What do you have experience in? What are you passionate about? As well as, what keeps you driven? What keeps you motivated? Find that intersection and then either develop a business model around it or if you don't know what a business model could be getting help to help you develop that model.
