-: I don't know if there was like
one specific thing.
I think,
just like my overall experience
and having the support,
whether it was from professors or
from my coach or from bosses and
different campus jobs,
I always kind of had the support of
go do it and if you fail it's okay but
you'll probably succeed and that's even better and
we'll be here to help you succeed and
get to that point.
I think having that support and
for four years really growing that
confidence in myself allowed me to
get out of college and have the
confidence in myself to then say,
"Hey, I'm not gonna go get a nine to five.
I'm gonna start this business and see
if it takes off and if it doesn't,
that's okay but at least I've really
tried and have given it that effort to
be doing what I really want to do and
if it doesn't work then we'll try again.
We'll start somewhere else."
But I think a combination of just having
the support from different outlets
just gave me that confidence because
if I would have done this
when I graduated high school,
I wouldn't have done it.
I wouldn't have had the confidence but
I think just having that supportive environment.
