I know that not everyone can be The Bachelor. Even more to the point, not everyone would want to be on that show.
This post isn’t about how to make it big on reality television (something I’d never encourage anyone to set as a life goal) or hitting it big.
It’s about listening to you entrepreneurial spirit’s call.
Not everyone hears it.
Some people are content to clock in at work, have a wonderful 9 to 5, and go home to their lovely family in a home that their secure job provided. These are the people who make America run. These are the people who — like my dad — provide stable and loving homes.
But I was not one of those people.
Maybe it’s because I grew up in this nation — listening to stories of people pursing the “American Dream” — that caused me to want something different. Or, probably more accurately, God just made me different.
I knew, every morning that I woke up and put on my slacks… I hated my desk job.
This goes against all work advice you ever receive, which is “love what you do.”
And so, I branched out, and tried to start companies. I thought I was going to hit it big, but — quite honestly — life had other plans. To put it bluntly, I failed.
Spme people get lucky and become incredibly successful without having to work very hard. But this is not what I’ve seen. The successful entrepreneurs—and just successful people in general—work very hard. Their wealth is gained after years of failure, effort, and God’s blessing on their lives.
My life, of course, took a very unexpected turn. I never would’ve guessed I’d end up on a television show.
