The Hard Things About The Hard Things

Building a business when there are no easy answers. A lot of people talk about how great it is to start a business but only ‘You’ know how hard it is to run one.

So while he gave his life journey as a story, I picked these few words:

  • To build your business you must run lean
  • Know yourself and your strength
  • You just have to try
  • The earlier to collect the better
  • People who know you and people who know the opportunity
  • Staying alive long enough to ‘jam’ the luck

May the end, the hard thing is not setting a big audacious goal but having to lay off people when you miss that goal.

What if you hire great people and they start demanding a sense of entitlement and unreasonable things along the line…the hard thing isn’t dreaming big but waking up in the middle of the night in a cold dropping sweat when the dream turns into a nightmare.

Entrepreneurship is not an activity. This is a style…a life #BraceUp

It’s time to be a soldier🎯

PS: We met at the @Seedstars bootcamp, we were teammates @SeedstarsAcademy, we helped each other…she was cool…she should have been here. Honestly I’d have loved to build a business with her but then what lies ahead is greater. Hello Chisom, Coca-Cola says “Hi” lol

Onah and Etimbuk do you remember our teammate?
