Alrighty so i'm essentially looking for some information on how to start a successful business. I'm pretty sure i've reached that point in my life where i need to start focusing on trying to work towards a goal that will keep me from working for someone else my whole life. Obviously starting your own business is where its at, because if you can provide some sort of service or item that nobody else does (thats actually needed or wanted), you can be successful. It's gotta be hard to do that nowadays though considering how many things are already covered by other businesses.

I'm into the automotive industries (obviously, as i play GT!) and figure that is the sort of business i'm looking to get into. Eventually i would like to start my own speed shop, of sorts. I think the easiest way to start getting into automotive would be to sell things via ebay through affiliates who can drop ship. Does anyone have any experience in this? Or does anyone do this currently? How easy is it to do?

Another option would be something to do with computers, web design, or back-end scripting like PHP.. I'm into that sort of thing but i'm not sure if i would want to sit behind a desk all day working on that sort of thing. I already sit behind a desk, albeit not working on computers or really with them, i'm technical support answering phones...

But anyway! What do you think would be my best method of entry into getting an automotive business started?
