Life Defining Moments

Few months ago, I sat down and reflected on my life until that point and examined all of the significant events in my life that changed or defined who I am today, aka the Life Defining Moments.

Quite interesting.

I've been feeling something big is just around the corner, a pleasant surprise. Well, honestly, I expected it. Something big is coming. Something big and something wonderful. I think this weekend, that may have just arrived. It's not finalized yet, so I don't want to say anything. Though definately excited, but also little scared.

The past weeks since the plunge have been full of learning opportunities, and now that just took on a new speed and curve.

Progress

It's at times like this, you begin to wonder what will happen. Just so happen that the lawyers that I've been talking to regarding options of incorporation, visas and other legal stuff are on vacation. At the same time, I've sent off my business plan to few key contacts for feedback and referrals - so waiting on them on that. Basically, the past few days have been pretty slow.

My biggest struggle right now is that I can't get a legal entity set up in the States where the main market is unless 1) I can find VC backing 2) a US partner or get a business visa. My other option is to start an entity in Canada, however the cost is lot higher. Until I do that, I can't run marketing campaigns due to lack of protection.

In the mean time, keep on focusing on building the product.

I am so eager to do this!

Grind

I finally think I've got something down, this is it. The idea, the strategy and the plan to go forward. What's immediately in front of me is to get a limited liability entity set up so I can begin running it to prove the concept works and get some funding.

BUT HOW?!

My primary market is in the US but I am a Canadian citizen. I've spoken to few lawyers (thanks to my friend's connection, I was able to email back and forth with them without them pulling the lawyer consultation fee) and seems like my options are getting a company started in Canada and then make my way into the US. Though I am still investigating if there is another way, it's just all these proceses are hindering my focus. Kind of annoying.

I remember waking up Yesterday morning with sense of optimism of all the possibilities. This morning woken up with emails of doors closing. Gut just wrenches. But I remind myself this situation isn't here to stay, and my creator is bigger than any of this. He breathed life into this universe and put all the planets into motion. I will move forward!

I get this feeling that something big is just around the corner, I am so close! I am just so close at seeing everything unfold...gotta keep on pushing.
