(laughs) 01:40 I know that when I put my all into something, 01:43 it will be great. 01:44 Throughout this process, a lot shapes you. 01:46 You can be afraid and brave at the same time 01:49 and that's what being an entrepreneur is. 01:50 You jump off the ledge 01:51 and you hope that there's like a tiny net at the bottom.- advertisement spot 2020
