Business Advice from our ka-Kuda:
Starting a Business: Research the industry first, start with less than ₱1M capital, have 6 months savings ready because the first year is unstable.
Partner Betrayal: Give yourself 1 week to process emotions, don't make business decisions while emotional, always have exit clauses in partnerships.
Daily Struggles: "Pick your hard" and choose your type of anxiety. It's normal to want to quit daily, so focus on why you started.
Overcoming Fear: Think of the one person you can help, remember "Hindi kayo mapapakain ng hiya" (shame won't feed you), and post consistently anyway.
If You Feel like You are a Failure Here's What They Actually Said About Failure:
✓ Sales don't happen every day - that's completely normal
✓ Failure and slow days are part of the journey, not signs to quit
✓ Your first business is usually your biggest lesson, not your biggest success
✓ You only truly fail when you stop trying
✓ Making mistakes doesn't make you a failure - giving up does
✓ Every entrepreneur faces these same struggles
