What is the Entrepreneur of Impact?

My inspiration is to one day be financially stable while helping others reach their own stability. I would do this by having multiple businesses where I can hire people at a livable wage. For my self-publishing business, it is my inspiration to see my books in the hands of people (has been a goal since I was a child) and have them enjoy the stories and worlds I create. Finally, my biggest inspiration is to help better the social acceptance of disabled people.
How do you stay motivated?I stay motivated by remembering my short and long-term goals (stability, entrepreneurship, helping others, etc.).
What would you do with the $25,000?I would first hire and build a team around my self-publishing business (personal assistants and video editors) while planning new books to write and publish. I would also put money into starting a new business I've been brainstorming ideas for. Finally, I'd save some of the money to one day start a non-profit that helps & supports the disability community.
