Did you know that 70% of small businesses survive at least two years? As veterans, we’re taught resilience, and that skill translates directly into entrepreneurship. I’ve seen firsthand how applying military principles can strengthen our business strategies and financial planning. What lessons from your service have you carried into your business journey?
I totally agree with the link between resilience and entrepreneurship. One key takeaway for me has been the importance of adaptability — being ready to pivot when things don’t go as planned. What’s been your biggest challenge in staying flexible?
I love what you said about adaptability — it’s like being a military cat — you have to land on your feet no matter how you fall. From my service, I’ve taken the lesson that staying mission-focused helps keep a business on track, even when the unexpected hits. What’s been your biggest pivot moment as a business owner, @m_perkins123?
