What is the Entrepreneur of Impact?
Learn MoreI think my biggest inspiration in my business is to provide for my family. My biggest dream throughout my life has been to pay my parents back for everything they have provided me and to make them proud. I also wake up knowing i’m the only one at this age I know personally with this mindset i’ve been gifted with. I see thousands online but I am the only one I know personally willing to put in the work and that to me is the biggest inspiration.
How do you stay motivated?I don’t think motivation is as big of a problem as people believe it is. Motivation isn’t a fuel to keep going it’s a tool to want to succeed. I think my biggest motivator is that I am aware there is no quitting the rat race. The “rat race” is as what it states, a race. I’m just chasing my finish line as everyone else is in life. Some people’s finish lines are close than others.
What would you do with the $25,000?With the $25,000 I would start something new. A website business can only be scaled so much as the market is flooded. With that being said I would use the money and become a partner in a new business in which I am passionate in. I would want to invest in something reliable and easy to start with lots of room for scaling.
