Hey good people!
Happy New year!
I hope you are doing well and excited about the possibilities 2024 holds for all of us.
I must be honest with you. I am restarting my journey as a entrepreneur. I have not been as successful as I hoped. However the reason isn't because of the product, business, marketing plan, or competition. It was because of something much simpler.
Listen to find out what the problem was and how we are going to overcome it.
Ever struggle with doing the one thing you say you want to do (lose weight, save money, live right, stay married, live for Christ, stop doing “x”, etc.)? You are not alone. 100% of all of the people in the Bible struggled with this from time to time. Give yourself grace, forgive yourself when you fall short, and restart.
Your business will fail in the next few days and months if you don't do this now.
Relax, I am not pitching you a class. I don't have anything to sell, but I do have a warning.
There are some things you and I need to changeee right now to get our businesses where they need to be.
If you have the courage to listen, let's go.
Are we truly trusting God with this business or are we playing at it?
Do we really trust him with our money or has it become our God?
Would we even know what to look for to truthfully answer these questions?
Let's talk about it.

How to get an extra 8 hours in your day!
What would you do if you had 32hr in your day instead of 24? How would you business bed different?
Listen to this to find a quick way to do just that. That’s right, I’m showing you how to add an extra 8hrs, minimum, to your business day.
There are a many things entrepreneurs are doing out here that will not bring them any success in business, but they keep doing it. Don’t be one of them. Let’s chat about it.
Every six months, reassess yourself. Ask yourself the question, "What am I missing to get to the next level?" As a matter of fact, why not start this now? I want you to go ahead and ask yourself this question and then spend the next six months working toward finding that missing thing and then cultivating it. If there is some part of you that is critical for your business and you're not good at it, then that thing basically becomes a wall that will make things harder for you. For example, if selling is your weak point or if marketing is your weak point, then you need to take some time to build up those skills. If you don’t, then you needless to say, you won't make many sales and people still won't know a thing about your product/service. If you're weak in finances, then take some time to level up in them. You're business can only grow as far as the head grows, and since you are the head of your business, what area do you need to grow in? And what are you going to do about it?
If you need any help, you know I'm here. Drop a note in the comments on what your next steps are going to be.

If you live your life a certain way, then eventually you'll get to live your life a certain way. Make sense? True success is the ability to control your time. True success is the ability to make your money work for you so that you don't have to work for your money. Having a million dollars is cool for a brief moment, but honestly it is overrated. On the other hand, having the ability to say no to needing someone's services, or say no to working for someone, or say no to a good deal? That is a powerful ability. It's an ability that allows you the freedom and joy that comes with being able to control your time and being able to decide how you want your day to go. To get there though, you need to first set some goals and figure out what type of life will give you the freedom that you need? You probably don’t need a million dollars to enjoy the type of life you need and/or desire. So, what's your magic number? What's the number you need in order to be free? I made a formula for this for myself years ago and am willing to share it with you if you're interested. Drop a note in the comments if you want more information on that. Stay blessed!

Are you considering getting back into the workout groove? Or have you already started doing so? If you're like me, then you may have noticed that your body is reacting a bit differently to abruptly getting back into the exercising world after being idle for so many years. The frustrations that come with having those aching pains, as well as not being able to do anything about them since they are "surgery worthy", can be really painful. I've been in this situation before, and if you have or know someone who has as well, then give MegRelief a try. It's all-natural, meaning you don't have to use pain meds and it's easy to use. You've tried everything else right? Why not try something a little different this time. We're here when you're ready.

Here's an announcement to all the First Gen Entrepreneurs like myself - STOP FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE PRODUCT! Instead, fall in love with the solution to the problem that you are trying to solve. Take the time to perfect your solution. Yes, you should put it out there, but make sure you are listening to your customers and taking their feedback into consideration as you continue to improve your solution. It's a constant cycle of trial and error and improvement. If you don't keep this in mind, you risk falling in love with the product that you have today. If you fall in love with the product of today, then you may find yourself not wanting to change it, even though changing and improving it may be what the product needs in order to better serve your customers. Make sense?
The MegRelief of today is the 22nd iteration. How many iterations have you gone thru for your solution?

Trust your gut. It's really that simple. There is no reason for you to put more trust into people who give you advice on a product or service that they have no expertise in. Look at your own results from the work you've been putting in on your own product/service. Use that data to adjust. Use that data to figure out what is working and what is not working. There are a lot of "gurus" out on the internet. It's really easy to just stop trusting your own gut and mimic their actions instead. If you're going to follow the advice of someone in a particular area, then validate their results first! Look at their life and their results and make a decision on whether or not their results are what you want for yourself. And even after you do that, you still need to trust your own gut and instinct at the end of the day.
On a separate note, if you or a loved one is facing joint pain, then try MegRelief. It's an all-natural pain reliever and it isn't a pill that you swallow. You can literally just spray it onto the area where you're receiving joint pain and rub it in. We offer a 15% off discount for first time buyers and there is a 100% money back guarantee. So, what do you have to lose?

"Selling" is not evil. If someone says "no" to your product, it just means that AT THAT MOMENT they are not interested. Selling is a good thing. It's a respectable skill too. It's also a necessary skill for many trades. If you want to be successful in business, you have to understand that at some point, you are most likely going to have to sell SOMETHING. It might not even be a product or a service as it might be your skillset. With this in mind, if you don't overcome this fear of selling, you won't make it as far you could. None of us are perfect though. We all have something we need to work on. So, why don't we start working on it now? Not tomorrow.

"Every group has their Judas" It happened to me. Even if they steal your idea, they can't steal your personality. They can't steal your personal brand or your backstory. You have to make sure to put your personality in every aspect of your business!

"You can't steer the boat and clean the deck at the same time." Basically, you can't do it all at the same time. There are times where you need to put your head down and get some work done. There are also times when you will have to put your trust in others to help you, AFTER you make sure they can do the work. I'm not saying that it'll be easy to find people who you can trust to do excellent work on your team. However, I am saying that you only have 24 hours in a day. You can either spend those 24 hours being frustrated because of all the tasks you couldn't get done for your vision, or you can convince more people to see your vision as well.
Stay blessed, good people.

If you decide to take the route of entrepreneurship, you just have to be prepared for the mistakes you will make at some point. Once you accept this, you can then move on to learning to accept that IT IS OK. YOU WILL SURVIVE. Mistakes are just apart of the process.

Hey, good people! Unfortunately, you can't always learn everything you need to know about an upcoming situation while within the planning phase. There are some things that you only learn AFTER you actually start. There are some things in life that just require mileage, in order for you to become better at it. I had a chat with my son about this topic beforehand. This is something that we all can benefit from.
Let me know your thoughts!

"What's Your Why?" This is a common question thrown around in the entrepreneurship world. For some people, their why is their family, and for others, it's riches. Sure, having why like these can motivate you in the short term, but what about the long term? Are they strong enough? Are the roots for your why deep enough? Let's find this out and more in this episode.
The things that I feared were the things that came upon me. In entrepreneurship, you'd be mistaken to believe that there is a straight road to success. In this field, there are highs and there are lows. Sometimes those lows are deeper than we expect. If you have the right mindset when approaching them though, you may find little ways to excel a bit faster than you would otherwise. We'll be diving into this lesson more within this episode.
On this episode, Arthur discusses his experience with and the pitfalls of motivational conferences, and shares his knowledge on where the motivation for success should really come from.
With every success story, there are chapters, no volumes, of failures.
Mine is no different. So part of the journey is learning how to endure and overcome the failures. Today, I share some of my biggest and most public failures and 3 lessons I learned from it.
The lessons will save you much grief if you apply them.
