Part 3/9:
The Power of Immediate Action
Among the first lessons I gathered while working with Ali was the importance of immediate action. In the realm of entrepreneurship, waiting for the ‘perfect moment’ or idea often leads to stagnation. I used to keep extensive lists of business ideas in my Apple Notes, believing that one day I would sift through them and develop the best one. However, Ali’s approach shattered that notion.
One evening in Portugal, a simple dinner discussion turned into actionable planning for a new course idea. Rather than postponing the execution, Ali insisted we seize the moment, sketching a blueprint in the span of a short car ride. This experience served as a tangible reminder that success favors those who act decisively rather than endlessly court perfectionism.
