My screen went black.

Internet cut off in my region.

Anger and frustration were rising inside.

The harder I tried, the more went wrong.

Does this sound familiar?

Building a business comes with ups and downs.

I compare it with seasons.

In spring, everything you touch turns into gold.

Summer, you are driven by new ideas.

But…
​
In Autumn, everything you try fails. And then the winter comes, and dark clouds are forming above you.

This is where most entrepreneurs give up.

The trick is not how to handle successful times. It’s how you deal with the winters.

For decades, I tried to do it all by myself. And for decades, I kept failing.

Until…
​
I hired a mentor.

If you only like to take away one thing from this letter, it’s this:
​
INVEST IN YOURSELF.
