“From Doubt to Progress: Lessons on Faith, Reflection, and Building a Brand”
It’s been a mental battle, pushing through doubt, but I can hear the SPIRIT OF GOD saying, “NEVER FORGET.” As soon as those words came to mind, I started reflecting on every city and state where I personally sold Unapologetic® Apparel.
There’s a book I love called The Gap and the Gain, and when I read this book, it was right on time for me as an entrepreneur. The “Gain” is having a positive attitude towards where you’re going, not measuring yourself against an ideal, but reflecting on where you’ve come from. This is exactly how I feel as I think about the relaunch. I can look back and see how far I’ve come and how much God has allowed me to accomplish with His grace.
We often find ourselves in the “gap” when we start thinking negatively and forget that we actually have something to stand on. You may not look back and see the same accomplishments that I have, but the fact remains, you’ve achieved something, no matter how small it may seem to you. And that’s progress. Never forget that progress.
With all that in mind, I began to reflect on every city and state where I’ve sold Unapologetic® Apparel:
Manhattan, NY
Brooklyn, NY
Los Angeles, CA
Oakland, CA
Rancho Cucamonga, CA
Anaheim, CA
Houston, TX
Dallas, TX
San Antonio, TX
Austin, TX
New Orleans, LA
Clinton, MS
Montgomery, AL
St. Louis, MO
Kansas City, MO
South Bend, IN
Sioux Falls, SD
Chicago, IL
Cincinnati, OH
Cleveland, OH
Memphis, TN
Chattanooga, TN
Atlanta, GA
Savannah, GA
Augusta, GA
Jacksonville, FL
Tampa, FL
Orlando, FL
Fort Myers, FL
Tallahassee, FL
Miami, FL
Fort Lauderdale, FL
Columbia, SC
Charleston, SC
Myrtle Beach, SC
Charlotte, NC
Raleigh, NC
Durham, NC
Fayetteville, NC
Richmond, VA
Washington, DC
Philadelphia, PA
Boston, MA
Louisville, KY
Grand Rapids, MI
Minneapolis, MN
Colorado Springs, CO
I’m sure I missed a few cities, but in a span of about six years, God allowed all of this to happen. It still blows my mind.
As we prepare for the relaunch of Unapologetic® in Spring 2025, I am praying the same thing for everyone who reads this: that whatever plans you have, you submit them to God and that He goes before you.
God Bless The Entrepreneur
