2. Continuous development
As soon as my entrepreneurial career continued, different miracles happened to me. Universe felt my desire for strength, perhaps, easy to grow for new victories. I fell on the financial difficulties associated with the loss-making project that I had to be financed from borrowed funds, the betrayal on the part of partners and team, conflicts with customers, the collapse of illusions about the unique business ideas. And much more. I think there is enough to say that this experience has cost me tens of millions of naira. I came to understand that the only thing that matters in all these situations is development. Moreover, continuous development, a kind of upgrade from arrival to arrival.
Before I was firmly convinced that professionalism is the highest value, but now I can say with confidence that this is not the most important thing. There are many examples where a great entrepreneur of his time did not finish even the university, and sometimes school. And while the rounds for several buildings of their peers with gold medals. Thinking is formed in the process of meeting with another crisis. Through a set of diverse experiences.
The most unexpected discoveries in business happens in those moments when you cook the soup or hammer a nail into the wall.Or buried in the wall of despair of what is happening, you think about the eternal.
As for me, I was incredibly high, when I communicate with research staff, engineers in the showroom, professional cosmetologists and teachers. People who have reached a virtuoso level in their professions and are able to talk about the meaning of life as if the are talking about the simple things in a kindergarten. And now, I am eternally grateful to every crisis in my life for the opportunity to meet with these people. I know a wonderful master of his craft. He is, without exaggeration, one of the best in this world. He was already 65 years old and he goes every 2-3 months for training. What for? Because he prioritises development. And I also choose to develop. Everytime. Every minute of my life.
