What if of all the other stories I've been telling myself are also wrong? So like, for example, I worked, I used to work at a university before this, and I worked around entrepreneurs. So we would help students like launch businesses and stuff. But I could never be an entrepreneur. You know, entrepreneurs were these white guys from Silicon Valley who knew all this tech stuff and had angel investors. There was nothing about me that screamed entrepreneur. I'm foreign. I grew up not speaking English. I'm shy. And so I made this big mental barrier of who's allowed to play in that game and who isn't.
