The lessons I have learned along the way was no matter how much you know or how much you prepare failure was going to be inevitable. I have faced lots of trials and tribulations especially growing my business the first year. I went through financial losses which was the hardest part because it’s stressful losing money. Looking back I would say no it was not an easy ride but i have learned so much from my challenges and I ensure it helped me developed strength of character and confident.
