Interesting read @mindtrap

I was raised with the "real opportunities come once...or maybe twice in a lifetime, so make sure you grab them" mentality.

Same here. I had to re-program myself into new belief that "opportunities do not come on their own. you create them".

I still have regrets and blame my self for not being risky enough to collaborate with a businessman about a decade ago when he had the perfect business plan for a restaurant.

Would you consider risking a bit and getting involved in business build on STEEM blockchain? My long term goal is to launch token on SMT and use raised funds to set up real-life business in one particular niche: online tech marketing agency on Polish market, offering exposure in forign language (pretty much no serious competition). Part of business revenue would be used to buy-back and burn this token, creating demand and bringing value to launched token.
Currently I'm planning to launch experimental token on Steem Engine to test token economy on simplified model sometime in october/november and while I read your post, I thought that you may be interested in collaborating.

Let me know how does it sound. If you would like to reach out to me and talk more about opportunities of working together, then drop me a message:
