That is the reality I've been experiencing lately. It's almost been a full year since I fully leaned into my expertise in brand management and entrepreneurship navigation and doubled down on barber development. It's been nearly a full year since feeling like the underdog in my own story.
A lot can change in a year when you challenge your excuses, embrace Nicole's perspective, and follow through on your vision. In a year, I've become a straight-A student in college, negotiated an ideal schedule with my job for work-life balance, sold 22 books, secured an event assistant contract with a barbershop, and successfully branded myself as a trusted resource in the Orlando barber community/industry. And so much more.
I share this to remind you to get out of your head and commit to outworking your limiting thoughts/beliefs. I'm out here accomplishing more with less time than I swore I needed.
You can. You will. And, it could happen sooner. Because "Why not?"
Be responsible. Leverage your resources. Ask for perspective. Run the play.
Follow the lead to lead by example. You got this!
