Today we had the opportunity to hear from @charlefreedmansongs. Such an incredible guest speaker!
Some of the biggest lessons he shared with us:
1) Don’t be a jerk. Your reputation matters. Be kind, patient, respectful — always. People open doors for people they like.
2) Youth is POWER. Being young is an advantage. Start now. Fail now. Grow now.
3) A good idea is just the starting point. Entrepreneurship isn’t one-and-done — you’ll constantly need to create, adapt, and think bigger.
And most important of all...
DON’T FORGET THE FUN! 🎉
Building a business is supposed to be exciting. The growth, the learning, the late nights, that’s the fun part.
Huge thank you to Charle Freedman for your wisdom and encouragement. We’re so grateful for you!
