KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘When it came to doing stuff I'd procrastinate. I'd talk myself out of it. I'd think “what if it goes wrong?”'
‘You have to find one person with who you can be honest. It could be a mentor or friend, someone you can confide in..'
‘I got to a point where I realised my life isn't working, this isn't getting any better.'
‘It's too easy for us as entrepreneurs to want to hide and only show the world when we've smashed it out of the park when behind closed doors we have challenges and its not going so well.'
‘Sometimes you have to have a bigger reason than yourself and if you don't have that big enough reason you not going to be motivated to push through that resistance.'
