Be Annie, The Modern Day Dumbo – Traits of a Fearless Entrepreneur #18 of 25

What do you do when you hit a roadblock?

Most people give up just as they are about to achieve success.  If they could only see beyond that last roadblock.

As an entrepreneur, to be truly fearless, you have to be able to see the away around, over or even under what is standing in your way.  You simply cannot be deterred.

In a recent interview, I was asked how I handled it when I felt like giving up.  My answer?

“Giving up to me is as foreign as breathing in carbon dioxide and exhaling oxygen.”  

Dumbo is my hero but if my company had a name, it would be Annie

My all time hero is Dumbo.  He didn’t know he couldn’t fly.  He just did it.

I don’t have the education to do much of what I am doing, but instead of being told why I couldn’t succeed without an MBA, my highly educated parents told me that I could be anything I wanted to be and do anything that I dreamed.

This video is inspiring.  You need to take time to watch it.  Invest in yourself.
