Here Are 4 Things I Learned This Year
It’s been a long year…
Honestly, it’s been a wild year for me.
I started by working with my mom, typical stuff. In April, I went on a 4-day trip to London and started questioning my whole life (as one does). I wound up quitting the job I had working with my mom so that I could try making YouTube videos. I tried for 2 months by uploading daily. Then I fell into the “algorithm” trap and stopped liking it so I stopped. Now I’m back in the company as a controller. All this while running my own residential building management company.
Though I failed quite a bit, I learned a lot.
Here are 4 things I learned and intend to keep at the front of my mind:
People Will Pay For Almost Everything
It’s probably the Portuguese in me, but I didn’t think people were willing to pay for many things.
I saw people selling all kinds of weird stuff like basic communities for $100/month, cotton diapers, excel templates, “fitness” products (if you know what I mean)… Even with my own company, I decided to sell a package so basic and so expensive for what it was that I never thought I’d sell it to anyone, but 2 out of 6 people I sent it to actually bought it and are still with me today!
