Entrepreneurs pray more and rely on God more.

If your family says it's okay to be an entrepreneur, it’s okay. (ATD)

Another day

You ever notice the habits and rituals we practice aren’t too different from our parents?

You're told:

Go to college
Get good grades
Get a good job
Buy a house
Have some kids

You're told a lot of stuff, but why? What if it doesn't align with you? I remember I always wanted to just be free—to do what I want when I want. Over a decade ago, I was introduced to an idea: entrepreneurship and how God wanted everybody to be one.

It shocked me.

God's Surprising Call: Be Entrepreneurs

A few years ago, I was sitting in church, one of the few times I attended, and it was also the last. The pastor said something that stuck with me: "God wants us to be entrepreneurs."

This statement came at a crossroads in my life. I was struggling to balance family and following what I felt was God's direction for my life.

Whose Vision Are You Following?

Think about this: We are often taught to conform from a young age. We send our children off to school every day, where they're molded into what society wants them to be.

Working under someone else's vision.

We, in turn, have spent our lives doing the same. Following someone else's direction, in the delusion that it is our own.

How can we hear God's voice when we are answering to another master?

Even the Sabbath, a day meant for rest, is compromised by the demands of our modern world.

Unlock Freedom with Your True Calling

Imagine a life where you are in full control, guided by God's vision. When you step away from the traditional path and embrace your entrepreneurial spirit. you open the door to true freedom and autonomy.

Whether you are a:

Writer,
Realtor,
Creator,
Barber,
Analytical Thinker

Tapping into your God-given talents and skills. This will lead to rewards that go beyond monetary gains. You will find limitless opportunities and a profound sense of purpose.

Referencing ( Entrepreneurs Feel Closer to God Than the Rest of Us Do by Mitchell J. Neuber)

"Entrepreneurs tend to "pray more" and "rely on God more" because they are often taking leaps of faith."

To help you on this path, you need some practical steps to get started.

I urge you to start small and find a side hustle that aligns with your passions.

Start Small, Dream Big Today

Set clear goals:

Seek out a mentor in your field
Build a community of like-minded individuals
Dedicate an hour each day to developing your skills
Challenge yourself to bring value to the world in unique ways. ( blog, YouTube, or a local service).

The benefits are limitless.

Freedom, autonomy, and a fulfilling life are within your reach.

Embrace the entrepreneurial spirit that God wants for you. Now is the time to make a change

Take the First Step Now

Take the first step today. Reflect on your talents, seek God's direction, and start your journey towards entrepreneurship. Your path to freedom and fulfillment begins now.

You Don't Need a Job. You Don't Need College. You Lack Faith.

Trapped in Life’s Endless Cycle?

Many men, fathers, and leaders find themselves trapped in the chaos of modern life.

Feeling controlled and enslaved by a system that demands constant production and conformity. This struggle leads to a lack of faith and a sense of hopelessness. To overcome this, focus on your goals

What Are You Truly Seeking?

Freedom
Autonomy
Balance
Oneness
A fit life, taking care of your temple

The main issues we face

You are being controlled.

You are a slave to the system.

You lack faith.

Consider this

Think Entrepreneurship is Too Hard?

You might think it's too hard or that not everyone can be an entrepreneur.

But consider this: the biggest obstacle is the lack of faith in yourself and in God's plan for you. Remember, "if your family says it's okay to be an entrepreneur, anything is okay." - REMEMBER THIS FATHERS

Growing up with this mindset makes a significant difference.
