  • 9-5 jobs have a different reality than entrepreneurship
  • The universe is keeping tabs
    • You put in the work, especially in the world of entrepreneurship you put in the work you just must hold faith that the universe is keeping tabs on all the work you put in and it will pay off eventually. When most people are unsuccessful in the world of entrepreneurship they just stop before the returns come through. They stopped before the universe is like wait hey, we know you put out all this work we got all these blessings that are about to come for you just got to wait out you got to hold on for another couple of months you just got to wait out another year and then all these blessings are going to come to you.
