RANT: Get an idea and STICK to it!
Mar 4th
I’ve been bitten by the entrepreneurial bug back in the year 2001 (Thanks to Robert Kiyosaki’s – Rich Dad Poor Dad Book) and ever since I’ve had this goal of becoming a millionaire. I’ve accepted that I won’t achieve this by winning the lottery, singing or being an athlete. I have no other alternative other than starting successful businesses (note the plural form of the word). As I was cleaning my room I’ve happen to come across some old business plans of other ventures that I’ve attempted. I consider them a success because I’ve actually generated some type of income from it however they failed because of one thing and that is consistency. I’ve come to the realization that making money isn’t the hard part, it’s actually making money over and over again. Coming up with an idea isn’t challenging for me however sticking to it is. Is that some form of business A.D.D.?

When do you draw the line between fatherhood and ambition?
Mar 4th
I love my kids and that is undeniable but at times I feel like I’m not being the best dad I can be. I’m so caught up on trying to be successful that sometimes it feels like I’m just not giving enough attention to my boys. I have a goal in mind and my thought process has to do with my children benefiting from my success. I feel that if I work hard now my kids will be able to reap the rewards tomorrow. What are your thoughts? Do you feel that your children are young once and there should be nothing to interfere with that time in their lives or would you focus on your goal with intentions that your children will thank you for all your hard work later?
