In this reflective monologue, Mauro Stendel discusses the moment when the sacrifices required to build a company begin to ‘hit the bill.’ He describes how, as he becomes increasingly consumed by his business, friends gather without him and stop inviting him, and he rationalizes his absence by claiming he’s too busy. This social isolation forces him to confront the reality that his dedication has caused him to miss out on time with friends and family, noticing their aging and the years he has lost. He questions whether the relentless sacrifice is truly worth it, highlighting the emotional toll and the need to evaluate the value of his entrepreneurial path.
