Two years earlier, I had tried and failed. I had put three years' work into a detailed plan that didn't work. Ultimately, that failure was a blessing, because it forced me to reevaluate and question my strategy. I was able to work on antidotes to the problems that had derailed my original approach, and I bounced back with a stronger plan and a more resilient outlook. Failure is a natural and necessary part of the process.
Obstacles are a fact of life.
When one of my former employers merged with another company, my position became superfluous, and I lost my job. The Keep Walking Fund is working to enable fighters to pursue their dreams. Ultimately, every business starts as a dream. And we must protect thoses dreams. But surely, every failed company does not deserve a sequel.
