After looking through meetup.com and seeing a few meetups planned uncertainty and indecision set in. Naturally, my first reflex is to ask a question on YC.

I'm hell bent on going into business for myself. I'm going to do it even if it leaves me broke and homeless. I say I'm going to succeed in a very real way! I've been stuck without motion regarding this for years, and now I'm sick of it. Since I quit my job in November, I'm using this time as an opportunity/blessing to get started.

This now brings up the question of naming the LLC I plan to form.

Any tips for doing so? I'm not sure if I will be doing consulting through the business, or if I will create online apps, etc through the company. Does this matter?

Thanks for the help!

I recently quit my job at a reputable company, because it just wasn't working out. Now, I'm taking a little break from the working world while I figure out what I want to do next. One part of me would like to go back to a large company, another part of me would like to join a startup, and then there is the very strong urge to create an online business of my own. I'm a bit torn inside as to what I should do, so I'm asking for some advice.

If I were to go the startup route, then how would you recommend that I go through the very large number of startups and choose one that's right for me? If I were to go back to corporate america, then how do you suggest I avoid what caused me to quit in the first place?

I quit my last job out of frustration. I just didn't have any freedom to work or think, and the ability to make progress, unimpeded, just didn't exist. They monitored me constantly.

Thoughts?
