Hook

Nothing has built my faith more than being an entrepreneur. Nobody talks about what it's like being the CEO, the marketing team, the accountant, the one that has to delegate tasks, the one that has to show up even when you don't feel like it because if you don't show up, no one shows up or if you don't show up, you don't get paid. I don't think people realize how heavy and how strong your faith is tested and challenged when you are an entrepreneur, when you are somebody that is betting on his or herself because at the end of the day, there's no manager, there's no corporate that you can fall on. If you walk away, the business doesn't exist. If your client stops showing up, there is no business. You know what I'm saying? And in every season, you have to trust God. Whether you are doing well, you got to know that there's going to be a season where people might fall off or things might drop. I don't care who you are if you are entrepreneur, shout out to you. If you are self-employed, shout out to you because nobody talks about all the hard work that goes into it. Being able to bet on yourself, some people don't even have people that have win in front of them to show them the way, right? So shout out to you if you are a first timer, if this is the first if you the first person in your family to start a business, to be self-employed, to run a thing. Shout out to you because it is not easy and people only see the glitching glam of being a business owner. People only see the bright side, the money, the trips, the X Y Z, but nobody sees the tears, the quiet times, the moments where you down yourself like, is this going to work or is this going to sell or is this going to be booked? You know what I'm saying? So, shout out to you if you're I was just thinking about this today like wow, it is a blessing to be an entrepreneur, but it is also very challenging because at the end of the day, you don't have anyone to fall on. You are the business, you are the CEO and I thank God for carrying me. I've been an entrepreneur for seven years now and it feels really good to have this freedom, but also to whom much is giving much is required.
