Business and Life Lessonsfrom The Breakfast BoyMichael Eilertsen
publishing, travel and events, South African Michael Eilertsen'sentrepreneurial journey delivers great lessons about determination,starting up, passion and courage to succeed. Here Michael tells how helearned from his past experiences and his biggest mistakes in businesswhen starting up. Read and learn!The vegetarian meal that would change my life forever"Is entrepreneurship inherent or does circumstance open this door ofopportunity? For me the answer is both, as I had many small businessesthat ran through my days at school to the captive market of fellowscholars, but the decision to never work for someone again came downto a single moment.I was a waiter at a worldrenowned meat restaurant in Sandton,spending Sunday evenings and Monday lunch serving various affluentindividuals, while I studied at then RAU (now University ofJohannesburg). After four months of learning the ropes, I had a goodhandle of how things worked, and had even contributed a couple of ideasthat made our order taking more efficient.The moment arrived unexpectedly one Sunday evening in April of 2001. Ihad a big table of even biggerspenders, some local businessmenentertaining guests. The table was mainly men, which meant customsteak cuts were going to be the meal of choice, and when the MeerlustRubicon 1988 was requested, I knew it was going to be a great eveningfor me.When it came to ordering, a lady at the table informed me that she wasvegetarian, and nothing on the menu catered for her preferences. Withher being the wife of the man who was clearly going to pick up the tab,6 WealthWise magazine
