Summary
Most fresh graduates from college have the default mindset of being impressionable and rushing into things just to get to their destination. This is perfectly understandable and normal because almost the same thing happened to Jason Swenk. It was the dot com era and he was hired into a company like he was a college football superstar. His computer degree helped him perform in his job but he realized that sitting around and trying to be significant didn’t make him feel fulfilled. He knew what he was good at and saw clearly what he was passionate about, so he started building confidence that he could do it on his own and start his own business and went through the phonebooks to offer his services. Jason shares his experiences of self-awareness to understand the needs and challenges of his clients.
