I talked with a Portuguese entrepreneur, Romeo.

He initially struggled to make his business work. He was working in a startup accelerator. He was hoping that he can learn a business from them.

It turned out that this was not bringing him any success. It was a lot of talking, a lot of "magic" but unfortunately no real results.

Now he makes more with one sale than he used to do in a month at his startup job. He closes $1.5k+ sales, travels full time, and learns things that work. He serves customers all around the world, constantly looks to improves himself and his business but most of all he now actually enjoys the work he does!

We met at Starbucks in the center of Barcelona. He just came to Spain from Lisboa.
