People thought I wouldn’t make it when I had a kid at 18 & didn’t go to college

While they went off to figure out college I stayed home to figure out real life

Now I’ve done over $400,000 in revenue in 2 years at 21 & I work for myself

Best decision I ever made.
See while they bounced around from major to major I was building my resume

While they were out partying I was figuring out how to make websites & invest

While they were out studying & taking tests I was working my way up through the work system
The same 3-4 years that they have been in college I built a 2x 6 figure durag brand, helped hundreds of people start websites, motivated & inspired thousands & made money from helping people which was another 6 figures on the side

College isn’t the only way...
NOTHING was handed or given to me

People always talk about making it out the mud & I’m the real definition of that

I hustled harder than every person around me & got back up every time I failed

I was my biggest supporter & my daughter was my why
Stop letting society & their expectations determine your life

Your in control

I’m living proof that if you put your head down & mind your business you’ll accomplish things you only dreamed of

Thank you to the man above & my daughter/family

Bless up 🙌🏾
