“Once I’m ready” is a trap.

It’s a free hour of consulting with someone that has experience in exactly what you’re struggling with…worst case scenario (no offense neom) you walk away with an hour less to binge Netflix and a hilarious story; best case they point something out that moves you to profitable months or years sooner.

My instinct tells me that you posted this here because you wanted something like this.

You are very right. I deferred it out of fear. I just scheduled a call with neom thanks to you comment. Thank you!

Btw I checked out your personal website and got curious - why do you speak Polish so well?

I lived there from 5-11, then studied it again when I turned 18. I'm rusty, but after a few days of full immersion I'm back to my 11 year old fluency. In the meantime my good accent combined with my grammar and vocabulary make me sound...a tad slow.
