There will be days when you just wanna give up, and I’m no stranger to this. You might find yourself sitting in a Starbucks, working on the thing you know could change your life and serve people at a high level. It could be one of those days where you woke up feeling amazing. The […]

Conviction is what gets your attention. Correction is what changes your direction. It’s one thing to feel inspired by someone else’s discipline,  It’s another thing to let that inspiration expose what needs to change in you. That’s when proximity becomes more than motivating. It becomes refining. I’ve had to check my own pride. I’ve had […]

I wanna be around people who convict me, not by talking, but by how they live. Their DISCIPLINE. Their CONSISTENCY. Their DRIVE. Their FAITH. Their MINDSET. The kind that makes you CHECK YOURSELF. I wanna live my life convicted by proximity. Because I’ve been on the other side before. I’ve been around people who weren’t […]

I don’t know if you’re like me, but sometimes,  I just wish I didn’t have negative thoughts at all. It can feel overwhelming. You’re trying to build something, stay focused, be productive  And then, out of nowhere, the thought hits. Something cynical. Something self-defeating. Something that doesn’t belong. I hate it.

I find myself back in Atlanta, sipping my coffee like I usually do, sitting out on the patio. Today is one of those days where I’ve been longing for that cool breeze in Los Angeles, California.

I’m not really talking about entrepreneurship today. This is one of those real-life blogs, just based on a conversation my wife and I had recently. We’ve been together over 30 years, so we’ve had a lot of associates, and a few real friends , come in and out of our lives. That conversation made me […]

I remember like it was yesterday. I was sitting in my warehouse, scrolling through Instagram, just looking at shelves stacked with folded tees , and then this new Pharrell and Jay-Z song called Entrepreneur came on. The line that stopped me in my tracks was: “If you can’t buy the building, at least stock the […]

I was having a conversation with my wife the other day, and I told her, “I think we should go ahead and renew our domain for the next 10 years.” That thought came from a place of reflection, thinking deeply about legacy, about what our work might say a decade from now or even a […]

Are you in one of those seasons where you feel unseen? One of those seasons where even your family and friends don’t see your potential? You’re grinding behind the scenes, investing in self-development, building something you know could change lives, and still, nobody seems to notice. Then that question creeps in: What am I doing […]
