Question from the audience: "If tomorrow everything were taken from you: business, money, reputation, and only knowledge and character remained, how many years and in what way would you return to the same level?"

Most likely, never. Because there is also, for example, the right time for me. Maybe my skills were effective in the early 2000s, but today they are useless.

All such reasoning is meaningless. It's an attempt to prove to yourself that if that "successful" guy were in my shoes, he would also be in a mess. But no! That guy wouldn't be, because he is not you. The main thing that you cannot "take away" from any successful person is their persistence, audacity, and desire to "conquer new heights."

Is it possible to start from scratch and succeed now? Of course! Right now, today, thousands of young people are doing it and will do it.
