Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Society in general:

    A career working for others is easier than working for yourself. You may fail. Also, you're an introvert. An introvert would never be good in sales.

  • How I responded:

    I tried it! I found out introverts can be good in sales, and you CAN make money and do what you love. I also read a lot of really good books about being afraid, but doing it anyway.
