I learned the hard way. When I started my entrepreneurship journey, I did not have much access, awareness or education on entrepreneurship. I failed in every step and learned. Still going the same sometimes 😞 Well, I got habituated to this process. But it’s not easy to sustain in this way.
Think smart and try to learn from others’ mistakes. Look for solutions; inwards. It’s easy to look outwards and blame others.
In my entrepreneurship ventures, I started to see real traction only after I prioritized personal development. Because my personal growth is proportional to my business growth as they are unidirectional.
Make sure you do the same. It’s a well-tested success template from successful entrepreneurs around the world. Happy entrepreneurship!
