How did your previous life experience influence your approach to business?

When I was a kid, I daydreamed a lot. I was often lost in my thoughts. I am still a daydreamer. Any task for which I can use my imagination requires little to no effort. I grew up in a family of entrepreneurs. My grandfather helped to create several companies in Nigeria, and the ecosystems in which they operated. My father and grandfather were my first mentors. I watched how ideas move through a series of processes to become a business. Besides having the gift of imagination, I am curiously seeking knowledge, in every form and way.

The first idea that pops into my mind was: I need to find out how it works! I then started to build my first website which was the first step that has eventually led to what I do now.
