We recently connected with Ronii Bartles and have shared our conversation below.

Ronii, we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?

Being an entrepreneur requires a lot of resilience. You have to get comfortable with “failure” and reframing it into “what did I learn?” There are a lot of great quotes about failure, but college and MBA programs don’t teach you how to handle failing over and over. But you’re not special and can’t bypass it. It’s a rite of passage that all business owners have to go through. I recently wrote the story of my career and all the “failures” I went through; projects that never got off the ground, building IP assets only to rebuild them again (and sometimes again), launches that no one bought. But persistence and resilience kept me going to the next thing that did succeed.
