It is National Small Business Week – My Journey!

I want to thank all of the small businesses out there who are willing to take risks, work hard, make sacrifices, and do what so many other people are not willing to do.

I have been self-employed most of my life.  When I did work for someone else I worked in small business in management positions.

I started working when I was 11 years old delivering PennySavers (weekly Newspaper) in NY.  When I was 12 I added a Daily News route (daily, morning delivery) and then a Daily News (daily, afternoon delivery) route a few months later.

By the time I was 14 I was working as a dishwasher in a restaurant and when I was 15 I started FT work doing HVAC work having already dropped out of school.

Honor Children

Children are perceived as powerless. But Jesus’ childhood incident gives us a new way to look at children. Jesus stayed behind in the temple. Though He was only a child, Jesus listened and even questioned the religious teachers in the temple. While His parents searched for their lost son, He searched His heart’s desire, which was to get busy in ...

I was called to make Disciples not IBO's

I am sick and tired of playing it safe when it comes to writing blogs- I am finished with fabrication. I want to be as genuine as I can in my writing and that means I am done with trying to please others with my words. So, in saying this, I am going to be writing about something that has been pressing on my heart and mind for about a year now. So here it is… I will be sharing my personal testimony of how a business affected me spiritually and blinded me of what is heavenly &a
