Hi everyone,
I’m trying to rebuild my life slowly and steadily, and thought of asking this here because I know a lot of you have gone through your own battles too.
I don’t have a degree, didn’t finish high school, and I’ve failed in three different business attempts. Each setback chipped away a little bit of confidence, but I’m still showing up and trying to move forward because I genuinely want to build something real for myself.
So I wanted to ask :
What’s the one advice, quote, or line someone gave you that actually stayed with you and helped you push through?
Not the usual “don’t give up” stuff but something real that helped you.
If you’re willing to share, thank you. 🙏
It might help someone like me who’s trying to restart again with whatever strength is left

Giving up is hard and too easy at the same time, despite what people may say. But “90% of success is showing up.”
But it’s not “just” showing up. It’s networking, it’s socializing, it’s putting your name and face out there. Unless you got a product you can make and sell 100% from a basement, you gotta show up somewhere sometime.
There’s plenty of things I never wanted to go to, but I’ve found just showing up, people talk, you learn, and you grow.
If you’re some1 who has family depending on you, and they havent left u yet, work and work where you’re at (if you have a job), and provide
If you’re single, no kids, your wish to start up a business may not b for you. You tried 3 times? Maybe you should aim lower.
If you have a family who has $ and you can spend the fam $ in such fruitless endeavors, well …do whatever you want. None of it matters, you’ll always have the fam $ to fall back on
Hard to impart ” wisdom words” or strategies bc really, what IS THE ACTUAL situation you’re in to be in such debacle?
