I’m a serial entrepreneur who’s most known for growing and exiting Vodien for $30 million.

People generally have 2 issues that prevent them from starting their business: finding a good business idea, and not knowing if their business idea is good enough.

It’s 2019 and I’m turning 35 years old this year. When I was a young 8-year-old kid in primary school, I had teachers who were 20-30 years old. I remember thinking to myself that they were really old. Now, I’m looking on as my 40th birthday approaches in 5 years’ time, and it’s a stark reminder of how fast time flies by, and how it’s important to find ways to...
