In this brief seminar excerpt, Speaker A reflects on the humble origins of their entrepreneurial community, recalling that meetings started in a small YMCA room with just a handful of attendees—initially three, then five to eight people. Over time, the group expanded to a larger venue called Indigo, illustrating how consistent, part‑time effort can lead to significant growth. Speaker A emphasizes the importance of persistence, warning that many entrepreneurs quit too early and urging listeners to stay the course to achieve their goals. The segment concludes with gratitude for the audience’s time and a token of appreciation—a bottle of wine—offered by Speaker B.

Chapters

The first one, there were 3 people who came out. It was in a small room with the YMCA and just kept doing it. And I know some of you guys have been here from the beginning, remember when we had 5, 8 people in the room. And as a result, you know, now we have already people, we're in Indigo. And it just shows that this was just a part-time thing that I've been working on. If you stick with whatever you're doing, give it enough time, you're bound to succeed. And a lot of entrepreneurs quit too early, quit before they reach the finish line. So I would encourage you to stick with it, keep going, eventually you'll get to where you want to go. On behalf of all of us, thank you for the time you've invested in this seminar.
This is just a small token of appreciation, a bottle of wine.
