\u201cI gained everything; I really have. I think if I didn’t have what I was doing right now, as far as chasing something, I don’t know what I would have\u2026 It\u2019s my motivation to do whatever it is that I\u2019m doing for the bigger picture and to try to build something that\u2019s bigger than ourselves. So, for me, this is everything,\u201d said 21-year-old Evan Pulaski as he sat across the room at Starbucks from where, four years prior, he and his best friend established their motivational brand \u201cOpportunities Never End,\u201d<\/a> also known as \u201cO.N.E.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the sound of milk being steamed and orders being taken in the background at Starbucks, Pulaski and his business partner Vincent Meng described the first time they met in the wrestling ring eight years ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although they shared a passion for wrestling and wrestled together on the same team for a few years, they didn\u2019t get close until they were nearing the end of their high school careers and when they did, they discussed the deep crevasses of life and shared some grand ideas. They both envisioned doing great things and both wanted to help people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both Pulaski and Meng<\/a> attended Sinclair Community College. Meng is continuing his education at the University of Dayton, graduating with a degree in entrepreneurship in a year. Powlowsky is currently working with a business mentor at an insurance agency, learning how to sell policies and exploring the administrative side of other business models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe things we learned through wrestling, through everything else in life and our mentors, we wanted to help other people have the same inspiration and motivation to do whatever they want in life,\u201d said Meng.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
