What was the thing that made you say, You know what? I want to do something with my wife. We need to create something totally different. We need to move away from the 9 to 5 job that I had.

Like you, like me, We left our hometown when we were fairly young to pursue a career that may or may not be possible for like the regular people. But we gave it all and we managed to have our careers and enjoy it. I was working in visual effects for too many years, reaching even high levels of roles. So I had that confidence that if you put everything into one mission, you will achieve it multiple times.

You need to channel this energy somehow.
