I recently visited my old job to see if some of my ex-coworkers were still working in the office. To my surprise, I saw that several of them were still working for the company. Many of them were happy and content with their job. However, many others spent time asking me about my business and how they can start their own. In fact, this has been happening more frequently with individuals that I meet that have a full-time job. This is probably due to the fact that entrepreneurship has increased so much over the years. More people are starting businesses from...

In life, we will all face problems. Some of the problems will be small and pesky, others will be giant and intimidating. I think we can all agree that no matter the size of the problem, we always want them gone. Throughout my years working for a financial institution, and now as an entrepreneur, one of my goals has always been to not let little problems stop me and to conquer my biggest problems quickly. I learned that not all problems can be eliminated swiftly. There are some issues that we face that can only improve over time. But it was...

Piece of cake
It seems like most of the people who inhabit the earth today are happy with just getting by, getting through, and getting just enough. But you are not one of those people. You may not be happy with accomplishing less than you are capable of. Perhaps you want more and want to exceed your potential. If "good enough" is your goal, this post is not for you. There have been times in my life when I have achieved my goals and there have been many other times when I've overachieved my goals. The feeling of overachieving (and the steps to doing...

This year will be different
The desire to improve oneself is something I think we all have. But for some reason, many people struggle to become the person they've always wanted to be. Change can take time and that may be the reason so many people cannot seem to reach the goals they set or accomplish the things they desire. Although I do agree that change does take time, I also believe that there are things that can be done to move you in the right direction at a faster pace. Those things are often never easy which is why most people do not do them....

I did recently. If you've been following this blog for a while, you know that I've been working in the financial industry while running my businesses part-time. But earlier this year, I decided to take the leap and become a full-time entrepreneur. The Growing Feeling A few months before I left my career, I began to have a funny feeling that I would not be at the job for long-which was crazy. It was crazy because the job that I was able to land was a dream job for me. I had the opportunity to work with several different teams, learn under a...

03/06/2016 There are few things worse than being stuck in a job that you no longer want to do. Trust me, I know. In my case I worked for a large financial institution in a department where there was no opportunity for advancement. Whether you seem to get passed up for every promotion or you work for a company where there seems to be no opportunity for growth, being stuck in one position too long and instead of growing in your career is like floating on a raft in the middle of the ocean. In this post I will share with you a...

1) You don’t know what success is The problem with success is that most people don’t fully understand what it is. Success cannot be generalized because success is not the same thing for everyone. A successful life all depends on the individual’s goals for themselves and their ability to achieve those goals. Goals change throughout a person’s life so the idea of success will also change. If at the age of 5 a child wants to grow up to be a football player, then success is making it to the NFL. But by the age of 21 if he decides that investment banking is what he...

I feel sorry for Monday. It gets a bad wrap. Even though it is technically the second day of the week, it is the first day in the school and work week. While everyone looks forward to the weekends and celebrates “Hump Day”, Mondays are the butt of jokes and is made fun of on posters. Most people begin to dread Sunday nights because of Monday mornings. But, if your Sundays were more productive and enjoyable, perhaps your Mondays would be better. If you're reading this posted right after it was published, you have another week before before you can use some...
