"Everything sucks at first, very few things suck forever.” – John Gorman

Being an entrepreneur is a roller coaster.

Some days you’re excited, some days you’re terrified, and every day there is something new – something you’re testing, improving or changing.

For me, this is a reminder: When you're on that roller coaster it might a day when you're heading up and it might be a day when you’re heading down.

Things are always changing and we don’t know what tomorrow might look like.

We still don't really know how long or how impactful this whole situation will be. We have to take it day by day but it won't always be like this – things will change.

Part of being resilient is just learning to roll with the punches. Because even if it sucks at first, it won't suck forever.
