Hey everyone. I just want you all to know that it isn’t always great and that this current time has been very difficult on my business and me personally. I also want you to know this because we normally don’t share this side of ourselves. Zizojika izinto.

I also need you to know that during this time I’ve realized how much I didn’t know about my own business. I’ve often chosen to look away at some of the most important administrative stuff here. I’ve used this time to go back and reflect and make better.

What’s been great is that I’ve been mentally strong to look at my business and face some of these daunting overdue decisions that will form a proper foundation for this great institution we call BarLeader. We are still around and will continue in faith.

What we do have is a great business anchored by great people. The best thing I’ve done during covid is to reconfigure and reinvigorate this potential GIANT of a business. 6yrs in and I’m happy to be tweeting about my blessings and mistakes.

I’ve struggled to keep this ship afloat, I’ve paid people late, they’ve paid me late or not at all, I’ve ignored calls and they’ve ignored mine. Business is an extreme sport and the risk offers great returns and extreme devastations.

Last week I was shocked when I fell into an enxiety attack (Genuinely thought it was a stroke) but family was there to help me up. I’m better now and have been grateful for life. In that moment I was confronted with my own mortality and in all of this found myself being grateful
