Hey everyone,
I wanted to share a pivotal moment in my entrepreneurial journey with you. After months of frustration and little progress in my marketing agency, I made a bold decision to work for a digital marketing agency for 3-6 months to gain credibility and hands-on experience.
However, just before diving into this new chapter, I impulsively attended a martial arts retreat in Vietnam and Thailand hosted by an influential YouTuber. This spontaneous decision turned out to be a game-changer.
Flying from NYC to Ho Chi Minh City without knowing anyone was terrifying, but the experience of being surrounded by like-minded individuals at the retreat was exactly what I needed. The diverse backgrounds and success stories I encountered reaffirmed that anyone can achieve their goals with determination.
I realized that our environment plays a significant role in our lives, echoing @MJ DeMarco advice to 'pack your damn bags and leave.' Even a short two weeks away reignited the fire in me to persevere through failure.
The main takeaway? Ensure you're in the right environment for success. If your hometown is draining your energy, come up with a plan to change it. Most friends and family won't understand, but don't let that discourage you.
While I'm still working towards my goals, I hope sharing this experience inspires at least one person to reassess their environment and take steps to improve their life.
Feel free to share your own experiences or thoughts on the impact of changing your environment.
Keep pushing forward!
