We all heard it. Paystack got acquired by Stripe for $200M. You begin to do the math of how much that is in Naira.
And it seems almost unthinkable that you can get there. But here’s the truth: anyone - yes, even you reading this - can become a million dollar founder.
Just one thing - It starts with a skill.
Think of a skill as your ticket through the gates. It’s like a certificate that shows that you have the discipline to learn something well, and excel at it. Also, it shows ability to self-manage.
It doesn’t matter what the skill is. What matters is that it gives you leverage. It gives you a starting point.
This week’s challenge:
Start with one skill. If you’re learning one, double down on it.
You don’t chase being a founder. It has to find you.
Stay focused.
