Go Canes !

Dear mommy,

Recently, I had coffee with a career woman in her early 20s.
She is smart, kind, and successful in her career.

But during that brief coffee time, I affirmed something that I knew before.

Entrepreneurs and corporate 8-5 people are not on the same wave length.

As an entrepreneur, I define risk as “dashing into the future with hope.”

Entrepreneurs embrace the unknown.
We enjoy the competition and focus on the reward.
We thrive in competition.
We acknowledge failure is our best teacher.

While sharing my vision, she said
“isn’t it scary not to have a stable salary?”
“isn’t is scary to take risk?”

my lesson.

Find your cheerleaders. If you want to be the next Oscar winner, hang our with people who have been their and done it.

If you’re an entrepreneur, surround yourself with those who are like minded.

Remember, Time is our best asset.
Each day goes by too quickly.

Don’t waste your time trying to convince someone who you will be. Just Do IT!

Seize the day, seize the moment but find your cheerleaders.
These support group will destroy doubts and carry you through the hurdles.
