The much awaited first order comes!!!

Dear BH,

This has been a momentous week for you. your first order. Its been a year of struggle, doubts, pessimism and optimism in equal measure. 12 months since you started this company…18 months since you resigned after a career of 10 years… I’ve watched you from the sidelines not knowing what to do.. every time you’ve wanted something so badly, there has always been a way to get that for you. but this was different. I could just watch, try to support .. but this was all about you. you had to do it.. face your frustrations.. your fears.. the negative voices having a ball inside and outside.. it was difficult..

I would watch you get excited after calls.. tell me ‘yes, this does seem like a deal’... I would tell you ‘don’t get excited. let it come’ ever wary of the gods who look and get jealous.. you would turn and say ‘ rubbish! As if!’.. ‘might not be,but why take the risk’.. we would go on in the same vein…

I am proud of you… much more than you can imagine... for this is about you and you alone. You have done this on your own with no support from anybody else.. nobody to guide or mentor you. you decided your path.. worked towards it… (on your broken laptop).. cold calling random people… setting up meetings which nobody would attend… and still soldiering on hopeful that the tide would change. And it did.

This is just your first order.. a harbinger of many many more to come… and they will come.. that’s for sure…

God bless you with a smile on your face always and hope in your heart and the grit to make your dreams come true!

Lotsa luv,
Me.
