Session: When to Persevere & When to Quit: From Defeated to Founder

People talk a lot about taking risks, but often times when we feel defeated, devalued or demotivated it's challenging to make progress. That, coupled with the doubts and fears projected onto you by others can be paralyzing. Learn practical steps you can take, small developments that can help you progress and how to take BIG risks when you're completely risk averse like I once was). Plus I'll go over the core fundamentals of getting your first customer as a first time founder.
