I think entrepreneurship is at the heart of who we are in terms of the American promise, the American dream. Being an entrepreneur means you never stop no matter what. Being an entrepreneur means seeing opportunity in a broken system. and deciding it's your job to fix it. Being an entrepreneur means doing hard things because your vision matters more than your fears. Being an entrepreneur means communicating with clarity and confidence exactly where you're going even when you're not
too clear or confident about it. Being an entrepreneur is getting up more times than you get knocked down. When you get stuck, it's about making that pivot. And it's not about the contact and the swing. It's about the follow through. Well, it means like creating opportunities, I think. Having fun with realizing that you can find things that, you know, helps you make money and be independent and be creative. Being a serial entrepreneur means this. Using a
platform for other people immediately to do better things for them, but also personal freedom for me financially and looking at things that I would never normally get to see. So don't be afraid to be an entrepreneur. Get out, try it, make friends. The rest will sort of sell back.
