This brought its share of difficulties and questioning, both professionally (with Clevermint) and personally.<br \/>It was during these years that I came to understand the importance of &#8220;<strong>resilience<\/strong>&#8220;, the ability to absorb and overcome shocks.<br \/>As an entrepreneur, I&#8217;m constantly in &#8220;action&#8221;, in the will to get things done.

In times of change (which are intrinsic to any period of crisis), it&#8217;s always been tempting for me to be constantly in action. However, I&#8217;ve learned (and I still have a long way to go) that reflection and re-evaluation of situations are just as important.
