If there's one thing all humans agree on, it's that we will make mistakes at some point. But there is nothing we are more accurate at than learning proportionally to the size of the stick we hit. So, with the idea in mind that no matter how badly we have erred or how low we have fallen, we can get up, I seek to inspire as many people as possible to get up and connect with their power of resilience.It was from that capacity that at the age of 15 I started entrepreneurship, knowing absolutely nothing, but willing to err, to overcome myself and challenge myself to find a way through the fog, to leave my mark on the world🌎.At some point, I got to sell scrap metal to make a few pesos, today I have the possibility of entrepreneurship with impact through fenikks🟢♻️.At fenikks, we transform plastic waste collected in neighborhood clubs into soccer shin guards, and for each pair sold, we commit to give another pair as a reward, in clubs where we create collection points, as a reward for taking responsible action with the environment. What seems such a virtuous model was not born as a business idea. Rather, it was a solution to a need. During a training session, the shin guards I had were kicked, and since I didn't have the money to buy new ones, I made some out of a bucket that I had thrown away in the backyard. I cut it with a saw, I molded it with my grandmother's hair dryer, I added a design with photos that I had made in paint and that was it, I had new shin guards to play with as a protégé.The next game, I went to the club, I took them out a little bit on the sly and everyone asked me: where did you buy them? Out of embarrassment, I said that they were sold by a guy from Buenos Aires, who didn't exist. I was missing an opportunity to make an impact, which I was not aware of until 2019.
