I hate going to work because a lot of time ends up being wasted on useless things.

For example, meetings—sometimes you can have them for several hours and still see little to no effect.
How did you manage to put up with it?
Back then, I wrote my startup plans in my little notebook: first get a domain, then build a website, and then just wait for the money to come in.
Later, once I stopped going to work, I could never come up with that many startup plans again.
