Hello, Bipolar. I'm sorry for showing up late to share my thoughts on your entry to this month's edition of The Thinker's Corner Challenge.
I remember getting a hint about your intention to get a phone and I was so excited for you. I know what it feels like to get a new phone for yourself and it's even more exciting since I have a good clue of what you will be doing with the phone. Hive is a very good example. Hehe.
I wasn't expecting that there would be such a complex backstory to your history with phones. Oh, my! It's always crazy to experience losing a phone to some lowlife criminal. I remember losing mine in a charging center where I went to charge it in Anambra. This happened just a week before my NYSC. I left Anambra back then and travelled to Jos with my Mum's phone, thanks to her genuine sacrifice. That same phone was when I used to start my Web3 journey before making an upgrade afterwards.
I'm so glad you finally got a phone that's fully yours. You deserve that treat.
I remember reading a post where you talked about fighting to recover some huge sum for your organization and the money was awarded to you for your resilience. I recall you used that money to start your business.
Not long after, I got a job and quit the business, and then I joined Hive.
Are you talking of the same business? For some reason, I'm hoping you didn't fully put an end to the business if it was a proper restaurant.
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts with us in this edition of the challenge.
Naahh.. it's alright we are all having a busy one 😅.
Mothers are sure something extraordinary with all the sacrifices they make to see us do better ♥️🌹.
As for the business, I'm glad I did quit and rented the place out. I got like half of my capital back.
Business got really frustrating and took a toll on my mental health.
One thing I realised is that starting up a business requires lots of capital and I didn't have that.
Just that initial investment won't do, you need to constantly be pumping money inside to keep it afloat and that was something I struggled with.
Right now, the complex where my restaurant was located caught fire and everything in it got burnt. People who do business there are currently left financially stranded. I got lucky 🙂.
Hopefully in the near future when I hit it big, I will go back to it.
Thank you for hosting such an amazing prompt and taking out time to read me🌹
It's all part of life experience. Running a business is never easy. But, there are some things we can only learn about business when we give it a try.
It's good to called things wrap when you did. I can't even imagine what it's like to be one of those that run business in the complex that caught fire. Gosh! I know that a lot of house owners and businesses do not take insurance seriously over here.
I concur with you. The future will be so much better.
They think insurance is a scam lol.
Yeah experiences gathered from my previous business to do better next time.
Thank you for your encouragement 🙏🏿
