And what has happened is it's created this sense that, number one, becoming an entrepreneur is like super easy, that anybody can do it. And then number two, it's creating this sense of elitism among some entrepreneurs who feel like they are now above the nine to five minions because they are living the dream while the nine to five people are still going to work for someone else
And I was trying to wing myself and get to the point where I did have to work a nine to five, but unfortunately my business wasn't getting there. And I'm watching other people exceed ahead of me who just started out in the game of graphic design. Like you all shot with them but you won't shot me. I've been doing this for eleven years. Like, come on. And I'm not hating on them. But yeah, I said I'm shutting the business down

But the truth of the matter is there is a lot of money to be gained from exploiting potential would be entrepreneurs via these workshops, these seminars that people charge by the boatload to get you to be your own boss. They say all the language, the colorful language and dialogue, but guess who they're relying on? The nine to five workers. Now, the odds of you making it as a successful entrepreneur, it's like the lottery in a way

And thankfully, I love what I do, but there are still some days where it's like, it's also a blessing to be able to create an incredible income for your family in a nine to five job where you can leave it and come home and just be fully present. I guess I'm kind of all over the place, but I just wanted to share a couple of thoughts on that and just say, excellent topic

We have to know how to invest in our brothers and sisters in Christ that are using their work, their talents, their skills for the upbuilding of God's Kingdom. We need to shift into that mindset. Instead of expecting everything to be handed to us, we need to shift into that mindset. We need to see Kingdom businesses thrive and grow. We need to allow Kingdom businesses to thrive and to grow

That's when you really see who's created for entrepreneurship, who's born for it, and those that may not necessarily be born for it because they don't have that discipline to put that work in. And so yeah, I think entrepreneurship is great for those that desire it and I applaud those that are great at it, but I definitely don't recommend it as something that everybody should pursue and everybody shouldn't feel bad about not pursuing it

I'm sure as an entrepreneur, that not being able to do that, you're not able to draw that line as easily because people are calling you, people are messaging you, people are reaching out to you. You have appointments at various times of the day and the evening
