Introspection, Faith, and Entrepreneurship)

You know what I love most about business? The more I do it, the more I learn. The more I learn, the more I discover. The more I walk this path, the more rocks I overturn, and with each one, I find something new.

Just the other day, I was in the kitchen cooking some vegetables and thinking about one of the clients I coach. She’s a stylist by nature, and she’s dope at what she does. But more than that, she’s a creative at heart. She’s already put in the work, and the work is already in her. Now she has something to teach others, something that can take them to another level.

So I texted her these four things to think about today.

1. What Do You Want to Be Known For?

Even when asking this question, you have to consider the market. It’s not just about what you want to do, it’s about whether there’s a need for it. And if there is, it fits within these four key elements.

Think about what you want to build, what levels you want to hit: first, second, and third. You may not know all of them at the start, and that’s okay. But start with at least two, and the rest will come as you walk this journey.

If we keep using my client as the example, she could speak directly to creatives, encouraging them, pouring into their mindset, helping them improve what they already do. That alone is gold.

2. How Will You Serve?

If we want anything out of life, we must realize it starts with serving people. We solve problems, we add value—and from there, we build a system. Service has to be at the heart of everything we do.

And not just service, but excellent service. Think about how you feel when you walk into Ruth’s Chris for a steak. You’re not just paying for a plate, you’re paying for the experience. The way they greet you. The attention to detail. The feeling of being seen and served.

That’s what your service should feel like.

Jesus modeled service. It wasn’t beneath Him, and it’s not beneath us. We’d do well to model that too.

3. How Can You Build Content Around It?

Content is digital real estate. You can put it on every platform, and here’s the kicker: it’s free. Let me say that again, IT. IS. FREE.

It doesn’t cost you money. It costs you time, consistency, and authenticity.

Show up on every platform you can, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube. Learn your analytics. Pay attention to what’s working. Then go back and make it better. Keep showing up. Keep growing.

4. How Can You Monetize It?

Now we’re getting into the bag. 💰

Cash flow is currency.

You’ve found your audience. You know how to serve them. You’ve created content that speaks to their problems. So now what do you offer when they want more?

This is everything. This is the goldmine. You have to create something valuable—something layered. The content is free, but the next step should offer deeper help, more transformation, and real value.

Start with something free that gets them into your ecosystem. Then give them something that helps them level up. Is your offer shifting mindsets? Helping them get past pain points? Is it giving constructive feedback and helping them move forward?

If it is, you’re on to something.

If we can get this, we can change our lives forever. Take your time. Build it right. Think it through. And as you go forward on your journey, you’ll see that there are levels to this.

As always, submit your plans to God. Ask Him to direct your steps. He’s the one who gives us the power to get wealth.
