One of the greatest leaps of faith I’ve taken in my life was my decision to become an entrepreneur and start my own line of successful businesses. There’s no greater thrill than becoming your own boss and setting the course you want to take in life. Instead of waking up everyday to make someone else money, you get the satisfaction of knowing that every dollar you earn is supporting your bottom line and building you financial future.
Who do you look up to in the world of business? And why? Do I have to pick just one [laughs]? My top three are Jay-Z, P Diddy, and of course Oprah. All three of them share so many of the same traits and qualities. They know what it means to be resilient – they’ve been in the game for so long. Additionally, they all do an excellent job of diversifying their business interests. They constantly look for ways to grow and expand their respective empires. The name of the game is to always evolve – know where the next business opportunity is going to come from.

It’s been an extraordinary journey. But no new year’s resolution is complete without recognizing and taking responsibility for past mistakes. Mistakes that resulted in me voluntarily shutting down my company. The truth is – despite our many successes – we didn’t always get it right. In spite of all of our accomplishments, I have to also acknowledge where we got it wrong. Looking back, I now understand that I simply wasn’t prepared for the phenomenal growth the company experienced. I didn’t setup the proper organizational infrastructure to handle the multitude of projects we were receiving on a regular basis. And, as tough as it is to admit, I wasn’t always the best leader.
