Day 23: Why I Flew Alone to a New Country.

I didn’t speak the language. I didn’t know a single person there.
But I flew anyway—alone—because staying local was keeping me small.
That one decision started my global journey.
Back then, I was only focused on my local territory. I believed if I just worked harder where I was, success would come.
But growth stalled. The market was too limited.
So I asked myself: What if I could expand beyond borders?
Before traveling, I started networking through people I already knew—existing business contacts, clients, and even friends who had connections abroad.
That gave me a starting point.
Then I booked the flight.
I landed in a country where I didn’t understand the language, the culture, or the business style. But I listened, adapted, and led with humility.
From that trip, one relationship led to five more.
Those five led to teams, partners, and eventually an entire new income stream.
That one act of courage opened up a global business—and a global lifestyle.
