We had the good fortune of connecting with Marco Polo Guzman and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Marco Polo, do you have some perspective or insight you can share with us on the question of when someone should give up versus when they should keep going?
I don’t think we should ever give up, because there are always solutions to everything. In terms of starting a business, there is always room for improvement you can always find ways to innovate and keep going. In my opinion you should never give up something you start until you finish. That is something I learned early on from my parents.
What should our readers know about your business?
I believe that nothing is easy that is worthwhile, because you have to sacrifice so much to get where you want to be. You have to sacrifice family time, social events, and time with your love ones. I overcame these challenges by having the right people around me and communicating with them what I had envisioned and they respected my decision. So it made the transition easier for me to keep going and get done whatever I needed to get done. Through that process i learned to take everything a day at a time because life is a marathon not a race. I learned to sometimes take a break and look how far I’ve come. Smell the roses along the way and keep going. What I want the world to know about my brand and story is that you can do everything you set your mind to, you cant do everything alone so have the right people around you to help guide you and keep you going.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
In my view I would take a best friend to Huntington beach in California to hangout near the beach. The beach there is amazing, great weather and very peaceful. The seafood there is very delicious and fresh. I would take him to Duke’s Restaurant because it has a nice beach view and you can feel the breeze.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to give credit to my family and friends who always motivated me and pushed me to never give up and always keep going. My soccer coaches early on in my childhood who taught me to always give 100% in everything I do and to always have the discipline to follow through in everything I do. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for them.
