Shouldn’t be too difficult believing in yourself
I figured that if I was able to put a disproportionate amount of faith in one of the world’s biggest lie, namely schooling, and then dedicate 20+ good years on it, it really shouldn’t be that difficult believing in myself. I finally did and got out there to build something for myself. Damn I started […]
