I remember when I lost my first business 😢

I had to go back to work in a software house.

It was both good:
💶 income
🥅 purpose
🍎 change

And bad:
🕖 9:5 (more like 5:9)
👨‍💼 Management
🚘 Travel

On the whole though it turned out to be a great move.

I’d been a successful Key Account Manager before.

This new role was classic New Business.

🐺 Start with a territory and hunt your own deals.

That’s when I got my first taste of entrepreneurial spirit. And got hooked.

Where did you get yours?
