Adversity catalyzes change, forcing people to step outside their comfort zones and try something new, which leads to personal and professional development. Learning new skills lends itself to growth, enriching our life experiences and is attained as a result of learning from our mistakes — and can work in our favor to build successful businesses.

Jon Tsourakis, an agency principal and business owner, is a prime example. He stumbled into the marketing industry after a friend invited him to work for his father's agency. Jon quickly discovered his talents and put his expertise to work by launching his own marketing business. Starting any business is intimidating, but without risks, there are no rewards. Jon’s experience with launching his company is a testament to how we can leverage mistakes to build a successful company.
