Yesterday, I sat down and talked to a 70 year old man. This 70 year old man informed me that I would work my entire life, regardless of my dreams and aspirations. That kind of hurt. I was talking to him about my longing to be an entrepreneur. That talk could have very easily broken my spirit. I could have crawled into a corner and cried. That conversation reminded me that not everyone will understand the journey I'm choosing. A lot of people will question my decisions. It also made me understand why Aftican-Americans are so far behind. We have been trained to work until we can retire then collect our social security. I've got news for you, social security is running out! Stop depending on what the government is telling
you! It's time
we start to make our own way. Change starts with us! You just have to know in your heart that anything is possible!
