If you get two months off from your regular job or business, and if you decide to spend it coding instead of a vacation, what will you make? Is there any good pending projects you would like to work on?

I'm looking for lifestyle business ideas/opportunities that can let me have sustainable monthly income of $1000 or more per month. What suggestions do you have?

Here are some technology skills I am good at -

HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, BootStrap, jQuery, angular.js, PHP/CodeIgnitor, Python/Django/Flask, C, MySQL, MongoDB.

I'm good at both UI/UX design and programming.

I have a website that I want to sell(Domain+PHP code). I don't have any issues with Flippa Service other than I don't have a credit card to pay its listing fee of $19. I do have a paypal account but it isn't having sufficient balance and the country I live in doesn't allow me to transfer money to my paypal account. However, I can receive payments through paypal and transfer it to my bank account.

So, is there any similar site that doesn't charge a listing fee or it deducts it from sales balance?

Let me first tell you about the current situation and the events leading to it. I did my B.Sc. in computer science in 2004. My dream since second year of my graduation was to have my own startup, my own company where we can develop quality software products. After my graduation I worked as intern(SAP ABAP Developer) at a large indian IT company. As I excelled in my work there and was better than most of the experienced programmer there, they offered me a permanent position in the company. I worked there for 2 more years and got tired of the boring corporate culture. There was no more real work left and I just got my salary doing nothing. It was frustrating as I always wanted to do quality work. I felt like my life was leading to nowhere. Besides that my ambition was to startup my own business. So, I played a gamble and it backfired.

I quit my job and started a company with one of my college time buddies. We developed Hospital Information System that took more than a year and half as we were only two guys. We sold our product to few hospitals but ultimately it was a big failure. We kept trying to improve it and re market it but it didn't worked and then we got frustrated. Out of frustration we tried our hands on other projects but we were not able to work with same enthusiasm anymore. Two months back we decided to shut the shop.

So here is my current situation. I'm 28 year old bachelor with a BSc in Computer science degree, 2 years of experience as SAP ABAP Developer, and 4 wasted years as director of a business venture that failed. I am good at both programming and designing and can do a lot of other things but currently in such a depressing mindset that I am unable to focus on it for more than 2-3 hours a day. I have many startup ideas that are really worth trying but now I doubt if I'm gonna complete it if I start working on those. I feel like I have the talent but not the mental toughness to do any meaningful work. Lack of success for 4-5 years have dented my self belief.

I don't know what to do in such situation. Having my own successful company was always my dream. I have the skills and ideas but no partner and finance. What should I do? Is there any way out of it?
