“Most beginning entrepreneurs are chasing greater freedom – financial freedom, freedom of time or location, etc. – and I was no different. I wanted more time to spend with my loved ones, and the opportunity to focus on what I found meaningful.
And in addition to teaching I’ve also learned a lot, which prompts one final piece of advice: Find a mentor, and learn everything you can from them. You don’t have to blaze a whole new trail when there’s so much valuable information out there to help you succeed. Best of luck – thanks for reading!” – Ezra
