Having the courage to start over
Building a business means having the courage to COMPLETELY start over.
For the last 8 months I've been traveling through Asia. And it's not always easy.
🏙️ Every time I move to a new city or country, it takes me a while to rebuild my confidence.
And building a startup at the same time - it can also mostly feel like I have no idea what I'm doing.
But the fact that I can find my feet, re-discover the places to go and build new connections in each place means that I know that I'll get comfortable eventually, if I put the effort in.
→ 'Starting over' is a skill you can master.
→ The ability to thrive in uncertainty will make or break ya.
→ Constant discomfort is part of trying new things
Being a Digital Nomad and being a founder are actually SO similar when you break it down!
New city: Where are the communities? ↪ Startup: Where do I fit in the market?
New city: Building a routine from scratch. Again. ↪ Startup: Pivoting your strategy.
New city: Making connections in a new place. ↪ Startup: Selling yourself and your projects when nobody knows you.
This lifestyle has taught me to embrace the unknown, adapt quickly, and find opportunities in challenges.
The discomfort you feel is the feeling of growth. Lean into it! 💪🏼
