SOME MOTIVATION:

Yes, I was born in Switzerland, but aside from that my spawn stats were pretty bad. No rich parents or relatives, a very poor environment, no real father figure, no mentor – just my mum loving me (which, in retrospect, was probably the most important thing).

I was never able to make use of so-called “connections” or “Vitamin B.” My starting capital was literally –10,000 CHF, which was lent to me by my first girlfriend when I made my first attempt at self-employment (which obviously failed).

Today I realized that I must be in the top 100 under 40 here in Switzerland, and honestly, I almost cried. I would love to tell my younger self that everything is going to be alright – but that’s not how it works. If I had known all this back then, I probably wouldn’t have had the same drive to push so hard toward my goals.

If I can do it, you can do it. So get started.
