A MAN who spontaneously moved to a foreign country with no plan and no job now owns two businesses.
Sagi moved to Vienna, Austria, with nothing to his name and didn’t know anybody – but is now a huge success and “living his dream”.

Originally from Israel, Sagi took the leap and jetted to Europe.
After a few years of hard work, he wound up starting a consulting company and a tourism company.
Now a CEO, he has revealed his “super simple three step guide” in a bid to give others the courage to do what he did.
Sagi told how he started off delivering flyers and carrying out other “basic” jobs to build “trust and relationship” with people.
Talking to Petra Botekova, he said: “Moving to Vienna for me was actually very spontaneous. I didn’t even plan to go to Vienna.
“I never thought about this before. I used to live in Canada – that was the first place I moved to after growing up in Israel – then I moved to Italy.
“I was thinking about a new place to go to and my brother was here so I said ‘sure why not!’.
“I just wanted to go for it and here I am.”
Sagi said his first thought when landing in the capital of Austria was to start building up his network.
Using the lack of connections to his advantage, he was able to build his “value from zero” and sell himself how he most wanted to.
He added: “You have to know how to sell yourself properly and once you do that and you develop a network, everything just comes your direction.
“I’m a great believer in developing your own personal value for people.
“And before you can actually make them do stuff for you, you have to do stuff for them.
“And a lot of the things you will do, you will do for free.
“You will basically ask them what they are looking for, what they are doing and how you can benefit their life.”
He went on to say many people don’t believe they have what it takes to become successful.
For those who are not confident, Sagi said: “For me when I moved to Canada I was only 16.
“I had to develop my confidence from zero. I was working in sales and commission-only jobs.
“I think people should really reflect on themselves, see what they like doing and offer this first.”
