Forbes 30 Crisis Transformation
Share
A story about how Shaan overcame his existential crisis about not achieving Forbes 30 Under 30 by age 29.
"I remember when I was 29 years old and I had this excellent existential crisis because I thought I was going to be Forbes 30 Under 30 and have $1,000,000 in my bank account by then. I didn't have any of those things.
Then I was like, 'Alright well guess that didn't happen' and just continued on. By 30, all of a sudden I sold my company and had a whole bunch of breakthroughs. A big part of that was just getting the weight off my shoulders of feeling like I'm behind or playing catch up. Instead, I wanted to be playing offense."
