On being adaptable
If I want to grow my business to $1M+ one day, having this one skill will be make or break.
It's being adaptable. And I've learned that the hard way.
In the world of startups, being set in your ways is a death sentence.
Traveling has reminded me of that:
🇻🇳 Moving to Vietnam has meant getting used to a completely new way of life. A new routine, new people, new food. I've even been learning to speak the language to A1 level!
Immersing myself in this country like I have has been tough at times, but I’ve learned more than I expected. ⬇️
⭐️ Fully embrace starting again from zero.
⭐️ Own my mistakes and try again, in the open.
⭐️ Be okay throwing everything I think I know out the window. 🤣
So, when I leave Vietnam next month, I'll need to adapt to starting from zero all over again in Thailand.
And I'll be taking this invaluable experience with me:
❤️ Success as a founder isn't just about your product. It's about your ability to adapt.
❤️ It's about pivoting when the market shifts, learning new skills on the fly, and embracing change like it's your best friend.
So if I want to make it as a founder...
I neeed to learn to lean in to uncertainty. My ability to adapt might just be ticket to success.
