Great entrepreneurs have learned how to fail.

In fact, it's said we will have to invent and fail ten times for every success.

So, if you want your venture to succeed, you'll have to embrace failure to learn what doesn't work.

Don't sulk. Invent.

There are two biblical promises I invoke by faith, daily.

1. God's promises to protect me.
2. God's promises to bless me.

His hedge of protection doesn't mean I will live a life free of trouble. In fact, He actually guarantees I will experience much trouble because of my faith.

The idea that everybody can be an entrepreneur and create a startup is simply false. But I believe entrepreneurship can be taught. Here are 3 Distinctives iconic entrepreneurs possess.

1. Their solution is a Painkiller not a Vitamin.

I'm worse, a Kingdom Globalist.

Christian Nationalism was invented by woke globalist tyrants to censor and deplatform Christ followers driven by faith, purpose, freedom and the Kingdom of God.

Recently Woke Christianity has joined hands with this reprobate cabal.

Look, God created everything. It's...

Venture Fund. Venture Studio. Church?

- how do the three of these fit together?
- better than you'd think ...

Venture Fund - Kingdom capital for Kingdom causes
Venture Studio - Mentorship or AKA discipleship.
Church - Ekklesia authorized to redeem the world.

How often do you realign your personal and business goals?
 

- For as long as I can remember, I make Q4 of every year a reset.
- I get to re-define and re-design my version of success ...

I take a pause to ...

1. reset
2. realign

... my personal and business goals.

From my view, everything is...

It makes you more of who you already are. For the good or bad.

If you are a big jerk — money will make you a bigger jerk.
