What did you do before becoming an entrepreneur?

I've always had this burning desire to be my own boss and run my own business. So, before diving into the world of entrepreneurship, I wanted to make sure I had a solid foundation. First off, I landed a job in sales, which really taught me a thing or two about interacting with customers and persuading them to buy. But here's the funny part: I had this irrational fear of the telephone. To conquer that fear, I decided to take on a role as a cold caller. Man, was that nerve-racking. But you know what they say, facing your fears head-on is the best way to overcome them. And luckily I did! After that, I thought it was important to get a taste of the corporate world and learn about the ins and outs of different businesses. So, I jumped into the corporate scene, absorbing knowledge about business structures, operations, and management practices. Meanwhile, I was pursuing my other interests on the side. I taught myself programming, dabbled in design, and got acquainted with the lean startup methodology. I knew these skills would be super handy in today's business landscape. Armed with a diverse set of skills and a deep understanding of how businesses work, I felt ready to take the plunge into entrepreneurship. I mustered up all my passion and expertise and launched my very first company. Let me tell you, it's been one heck of a ride! It's had its fair share of challenges, but also some incredible rewards.
