Moving along a different path does NOT mean you failed. We hear a lot about "overnight successes," but in reality, there are so many things that factor into being a successful entrepreneur. If you made the leap into new territory of entrepreneurship, but it didn't go perfectly smoothly right out of the gate, you're not alone. Every step you take, every piece of a puzzle you place down, leads you to your vision. That vision may come right away, or it may take years. Your leap of faith is not lost. Keep on keeping on, very rarely does someone become successful in minutes!
