Have you ever felt inspired by a success story you've been told or accidentally read somewhere?
It happens to me a lot, it gives me the charge to try to carry out even the most absurd projects!
I feel no envy for these people in fact I feel great admiration for carrying out the project they believed in.
So today I want to share with you one such story, one that has the power to inspire and motivate anyone who has ever dreamed big.
Have you ever heard of Erik Finman?
Then it's really time to meet this young cryptocurrency genius who really made history!
He was a 12-year-old boy who, after receiving $1,000 as a gift from his grandmother, decided to invest it in Bitcoin when it was the year 2011.
You probably guessed the ending of the story: at just 21 years old, Erik became a millionaire with 431 Bitcoins.
His incredible adventure in the world of cryptocurrencies began when he saw the Bitcoin symbol printed on a T-shirt worn by a boy.
From that moment, Erik decided to invest in the future of digital money.
The young man with early earnings founded Botangle, an online education company that connected students with tutors around the world via video chat. He was about 15 years old.
But he didn't stop there; he sold his company and invested in Metal, a Silicon Valley cryptocurrency startup.
Why do I like his story?
Because it shows that age and inexperience are not a limitation for entrepreneurship.
It also takes a lot of intuition that drives us to believe in a project, and it certainly follows a thorough study to try to learn as much as possible concerning our project.
It is often about having the courage to believe in our dreams.
For this young man the road to success was not always easy, he defied convention, he did not listen to those who tried to discourage him, in short he never gave up.
He is an extraordinary example of resilience and courage.
I hope his story will inspire you as it has inspired me and encourage you to believe in your dreams, whatever they may be.
Because with the power of dreams and determination we can truly shape our destiny.
Thank you for reading my post.
