🤷♂️ As Fellow Entrepreneurs, You Might Have Heard This Multiple Times... 🤷♂️ "You just got lucky." "It was the right place, right time." "Luck propelled you to success." If you’ve ever been told this, you know how dismissive it can feel. But how much truth lies in these claims? Is success really a roll of the dice, or does entrepreneurship demand something far more intentional? For my seventh article in Entrepreneurship Unleashed, let’s explore how luck truly interacts with the drive, strategy, and preparation that make startups successful! #Startups #Founders #Entrepreneur #Entrepreneurs #Entrepreneurship

Cum mă văd într-o singură frază? Cu un accent tipic francez, bineînțeles! 😅 Vă mulțumesc din suflet, dragi Loredana Maria Negrila și TVR, pentru invitația de a reveni a doua oară în această emisiune minunată, ‘Briliant’, care este, într-adevăr, strălucitoare! ⭐️ Vă transmit toată energia mea pozitivă din partea proiectelor mele: bonapp.eco, Beyond Business School, Recommerce Group și French Tech Bucharest, care sunt cele patru inițiative asupra cărora mă concentrez cel mai mult în aceste luni și în perioada următoare. În cadrul interviului care a durat aproape o oră, am avut ocazia să discut nu doar despre aceste inițiative, ci și despre primul meu roman, L’Hôtel Infini. 📕 Emisiunea va fi difuzată sâmbătă, ora 14:30, pe TVR INFO. Interviul cu Loredana a fost un dialog plin de inspirație și reflecție, în care am împărtășit puțin din pasiunile și viziunea mea. Toate salutările mele călduroase și un sfârșit de săptămână minunat! ⭐️
