A successful grandfather and his entrepreneurial grandson discuss what it takes to thrive in the first two years of business.

"...Maybe you needed to hear this at the start of your journey to confirm you're on the right track by doing something different to what all the rest are doing.

Maybe this message has come as a timely reminder for you to touch base with the fact that doing something different with your life was worth it, despite the challenges and difficulties it throws up along the way.

Or maybe this message is tough for you to swallow, as you're getting close to waking up one day to realise there's no time left and your best days are behind you. If that's the case I only hope you made the most of those days and are able to treasure the memories you created whilst you had the chance."
