On paper, I was successful, but I knew there was more to my life.
I wasn’t satisfied with the degrees and the “successful jobs” because I knew my potential was much more than external accolades. God had a plan that was much bigger than a degree on a wall and when I tapped into his purpose for my life, having courage wasn’t so hard.
One day, I made a decision that I would stop building an empire for everyone else without leaving a legacy for my own life and family. I made a radical decision to be in the 2% of people that actually go after their goals and dreams—and here I am today, taking whoever will go with me.
