Jacqueline Cheong(@JacquelineSYC19):A few days ago a friend called and asked, “What makes someone qualified to be a founder?” She had been thinking of starting her own company. I thought about it for a minute, then said: "It comes down to whether or not you believe that you can do it". She was a bit shocked - is it really that simple? I think it is. But believing is one of the hardest things to build up.
