In particular, it is common for employees who are just starting out in their careers to make decisions that do not align with the way they want things to be in the future. Inexperience is an unavoidable rite of passage that all of us have to go through, and it can make us look pretty dumb if we're not careful. Just because it is a vital part of our development doesn't mean that we aren't left with regrets.

A man who had started his career working in somebody else's pizza shop as a teenager had decided that the time had come to start a business of his own. He had already signed a lease to a location where he hoped to be a success.
Unfortunately, he came to realize that this went against the wishes of his former employer. They had made him sign a large stack of documents when he first worked there, and one of those was a non-compete clause. They insisted that he was in violation of it, and he wanted some guidance as to how this could be handled effectively.
