From Street Hustle to CEO: My Entrepreneurial Journey

So we normally don't start businesses to work. We normally create businesses to create systems, I mean, to create freedom. And, uh, and that's what we assist business owners with doing, um, in our Strategic Scale Institute, um, company.

Yeah, man, I like the fact— I guess I'm an entrepreneur too, because like you say, back in the day, that's what we did, man. For sure. Door-to-door cutting grass, uh, shoveling snow, things of that nature. Um, one thing that you said I was thinking about, you know, I always tell people this, man, about the streets. Like you say, the streets, because that's, you know, that's how we grew up. Like you say, the dope boys had the money and that's what people wanted to be like, man. But one thing I never wanted to do, man, I think, well, I never wanted to go to jail. That, that just wasn't in my, wasn't in my, uh, in my repertoire. It wasn't in my plan. That and going to the service, man. So I had to go out there and do that 9 to 5. And when I came back, I see them across the street doing their thing, man. But I just couldn't get attracted to it, man. But you know, I always say that, that, uh, that, that the D-Boys, they make the best business owners, man. You know what I'm saying? You got that, you know, marketing and everything like your mother told you, the marketing and, you know, how to get out there. You thinking about how to sell this and how to go against your competitors, man. So, uh, for most it don't come out that way, man, but it did you well, man. So, for sure, I appreciate it.
