My Business Failure, My Lesson
LEARNING

We often think we know what weâre capable of.
We build dreams.
We set goals.
We imagine success.
But sometimes, we forget a crucial truth:
We donât fully understand our own limitations.
This is a story about how I learned that the hard wayâthrough failure.
đ§ When Dreams Run Ahead of Reality
When I joined my family business, I was filled with ambition.
I had huge plans. I believed I could make something big happen.
And why not? Isnât dreaming big the first step to achieving big things?
But hereâs what I got wrong:
I was too focused on chasing big opportunities, and I ignored the small but important things that were already within my control.
I thought I was about to catch the biggest fish in the sea.
But I wasnât ready. Not yet.
And when things didnât work out, it wasnât because my dreams were too bigâ
It was because I didnât know myself well enough, and I jumped at the wrong time.
đĄ The Lesson Failure Taught Me
Business, like life, is a journey.
You try.
You fail.
You learn.
Each failure leaves behind a trail of lessons.
And the most important one I learned was this:
Before chasing anything outside, understand whatâs inside.
Know your personality.
Know your strengths.
And most importantlyâknow your limits.
đ€ Introvert or Extrovert? It Matters More Than You Think
Letâs talk about personality for a moment.
Iâm an introvert.
I think deeply, prefer solitude, and donât enjoy large social environments.
So when I found myself in a business environment that required constant networking, negotiations, relationship-building with government officers and politiciansâit overwhelmed me.
For people like me, itâs better to choose a career where your skills speak louder than your social presence.
Here are some ideal career paths for introverts:
Doctor
Chartered Accountant
Engineer
Analyst
Designer or Developer
Writer or Researcher
These roles still involve human interactionâbut it's professional, focused, and often one-on-one.
And the best part?
Even if you lose family property, wealth, or assets, your skill stays with you.
It becomes your most dependable form of wealth.
đ But What If Youâre an Extrovert?
If youâre an extrovertâsomeone who thrives in social settings, draws energy from people, and loves building networksâthen your strengths lie in visibility and influence.
You may shine in:
Business
Politics
Sales
Marketing
Public speaking
Content creation
In these paths, your network becomes your net worth.
Even if you lose your money or assets, your people skills and relationships can help you rise again.
đ„ Why I Started YouTube
So why am I making videos and writing online?
Because Iâm an introvert who found it hard to speak openly in front of people.
I often couldnât express myself properly in conversations.
But I realized I still had a voice.
And YouTube became my way of sharing it.
This blog, this channel, this spaceâitâs where I express my lessons, my failures, and my ongoing journey.
đ± Final Thought
Whatever you're doing today, do it with intention.
Give it your full energy.
Because tomorrow, when you look back, you should be able to say:
âI gave it my best yesterday.â
We all have limits.
But when we understand them, we can learn to work within themâ
Or slowly, steadily, rise above them.
Thanks for being part of my journey.
